THE BIG FOUR: Kettlebell Strength Workout

If you’re looking for a kettlebell strength workout where your muscles feel like they’re gonna pop at the end, this is it! Four simple but extremely effective kettlebell exercises: press, squat, pull, and push.

The workout involves the following kettlebell strength exercises:

1. double kettlebell strict press
2. double kettlebell front squat
3. double kettlebell bent over dead row
4. chest push-up or double kettlebell chest press

If you’ve not performed kettlebell exercises slowly and controlled, then you’re in for a big surprise! 6 seconds may not sound like a lot but it’s a total game-changer if you’ve not worked for TUT. Time under tension is great to optimize muscular strength, endurance, and growth.
