In the weight room, there's an underappreciated piece of equipment that you should use regularly. I'm referring to the kettlebell. It is a useful bell-shaped piece of equipment that helps you bulk up your muscles.
There are no whistles on kettlebells. It’s like little bowling balls with grips. Kettlebell exercises for women are excellent for increasing aerobic capacity and strength.
Newcomers to kettlebells may find 15- to 30-pound weights comfortable, while seasoned may go for 70 pounds. Depending on the kettlebell workout, the weights may also differ. Choose your according to your preference.
Set the number of reps and sets of your kettlebell training as per your fitness level and the intensity of your workout. We suggest 3 to 5 sets of 10 to 30 repetitions with a proper technique for the full body kettlebell workout. To get the best result, we recommend consulting a trainer or kettlebell enthusiast.
Let’s go through the best kettlebell workouts for women:
