Good Football Exercises

By Jason Myers

Being a strength and conditioning expert and previous aid at the University of Georgia I can say to you that kettle bell strength training is where its at when it comes down to the end result. Test the following 3 kettle bell lifts that should be a necessity in your strength course!

1. The Kettle bell Swing: This is the starting point strength stamina lift that is great for overall conditioning and building tremendous core strength. This lift is performed by you swinging the bell starting between your legs up to chest level. The drawing motion of wavering the iron bell incorporates hundreds of muscles and tests your cardiovascular system more as compared to anything you have tried with in other form of weightlifting.

You should execute a hip snap action by flexing and extending at both your hips and knees in a continuous and flowing action so that you can build the necessary drive to perform this lift. This hip drive is essential for the game of football!

2. The Single Arm Overhead Kettle bell Snatch: This special lift is gruesome in it's intensity! This is possibly at the top of the routines for maximum kettle bell exercises. This lift is executed by properly doing an explosive hip snap action once more. But, you are only lifting the kettle bell with one arm and letting the bell to vertically fly up in front of your body by pulling your elbow upward and lateral to your head. The moment it reaches this high point laterally to your head then you complete the snatch by hitting your palm to the heaven locking out both your elbow and shoulder into rest. This particular lift is wonderful for improving explosive leg power, core strength, and shoulder stability!

3. The Kettle bell Front Squat: For this kettle bell drill you can utilize one bell or two bells of equal weight. From the floor between your legs simply clean the kettle bells to your chest. Make sure your squat stance is firm and stable. From here simple perform a front squat going down until your elbows meet your knees. This is how you know you have good depth in the squat. Ensure that you incorporate all three of these lifts into your kettle bell workout routines for optimal fitness and athletic presentation. Train hard and have fun my friend!
