Kettlebell Workouts with Master Geoff Neupert

Time-Tested “Burn Fat & Get Strong!” Single Kettlebell “Built For You” Program https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn/ Here’s HOW this actually works - What the research shows us so far. (Like all research, this may change in the coming years.) 1) Hard, fast efforts flip your fat-release switch. Short heavy / explosive sets spike catecholamines (adrenaline / noradrenaline – your “go” chemicals). Those hit receptors on fat cells and turn on hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), which breaks stored fat into usable fuel. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphys.2020.575363/full 2) You keep burning after – but don’t overhype it. EPOC (the “afterburn”) scales with intensity: harder, high-quality sets → a bigger, longer post-workout energy cost. It’s real but part of the supporting cast, not the hero. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14599232/ 3) Muscle tells your body to use fat (IL-6 → AMPK). Hard contractions release IL-6 (a myokine – a messenger made by muscle). IL-6 helps...

Get Total Body Conditioning & Burn Off Body Fat With These Simple Swing Programs - https://salutis.kartra.com/page/SWING-HARD-2 Build Upper Body Muscle, Burn Fat Off Your Waist, & Get Stronger Arms, Shoulders, and a Lower Back That Won’t Quit With These Clean & Press Programs - https://salutis.kartra.com/page/oWP219 Many guys fall into this category: We “see” ourselves at the peak of our physical prowess - which for most of us is somewhere between 17 and 25. But then, “life” happens, and we are “magically” thrust 20 or 30 years (or more) ahead into time. And as a result, the man we “see” in ourselves as - remember ourselves as - is no longer recognizable in the mirror. Grayer… Wrinklier… Fatter… You get the picture. So, we remember what we used to do that got us to our peak - our prime - And we set out doing that again. Running… Push Ups and Calisthenics… Bench Presses and Squats… But our bodies aren’t 20-something anymore. They’re 40-something… 50-something… 60-something o...

“Rebuilt After 40” - Schedule B or C.  https://go.chasingstrength.com/rebuilt-after-40/ https:// salutis. kartra.com/page/M82491 My favorite way, and arguably the BEST way I’ve benefitted from bodyweight training over the years, is to use bodyweight exercises as what I call - Functional Antagonistic Balance Training. (Or FAB’s.) This was arguably one of the most amazing discoveries I stumbled upon. Yeah I know, sounds fancy and may even make me sound important. (Honestly, I don’t recall who I learned this from - it seems to me it was physical therapist Gary Gray or master performance coach Vern Gambetta, but I could be wrong. Strongman and Hand Strength expert, Jedd Johnson of the Diesel Crew actually refreshed my memory about 15 years ago in one of his grip training manuals about this concept.) It made my training fun again and because it had been years, if ever, since I included some of these exercises in my programming, I made very rapid gains. And as we know, gains (“GAINZ!”) a...

Level Up Your Kettlebell Game here: https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn/ I might have underestimated you. See, 6 years ago when I rebooted my newsletter and then started sporadically making these videos based upon conversations I was having, it appeared that most guys - maybe or even probably you - Only could “afford” 3x 20-30 minute workouts a week due to their demanding time schedules. But what I’ve noticed through probably thousands of customer emails and forum posts at this point 6 years later, is that is simply not true.  Or only partially true. There are plenty of guys who can do more… want to do more… and are craving more. I see it in all the time emails with questions like: “What else can I add to [PROGRAM NAME]?” “What can / should I do on my ‘off’ days?” “Can I still do [EXERCISE NAME]?” To name but 3 “archetype” emails. Not only that, even though I care about being strong and have stated that I’m tired of writing about “fat loss,” “losing fat”, and “weight los...

https://g o.chasingstreng th.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ 22 reasons why guys our age should stay away from training to failure: 1. No strength advantage when volume is matched (failure vs. non-failure are similar). https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9068575/   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26666744/ 2. Hypertrophy is similar when volume is matched; any edge for failure is small and mainly with very light loads.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9068575/   https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9935748/ 3. Failure sessions produce more acute fatigue, muscle damage, and higher perceived effort - worse next-session readiness.  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34881412/   https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11057610/ 4. Non-failure lets you train more often (frequency) and accumulate productive volume - key for hypertrophy over 40.  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27102172/ 5. Lower “velocity loss” (i.e., stop sets before grinding) preserv...

If you’re a relatively advanced KB trainee (comfortable with the basic doubles exercises), and you need a program that has all 3 Self-Disciplines “baked in” for you... ... Guys are loving the results they’re getting from this one. https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ And if you’re not? Well, it’s not a “too bad for you” situation. I recommend you use this time-tested single KB program.  https://go.chasingstrength.com/burn-sa1/ It’s a single KB training program with all 3 of those self-disciplines included. If you’re like most of us, your introduction to the weight pile was probably vis-a-vis bodybuilding, Muscle & Fitness, and / or Arnold “Get To The Choppa” Schwarzenegger. Which, of course, is why many, if not most, guys over 40 think the epitome of “getting in shape” or “being in shape” is to “look like a bodybuilder”. And that means working out (training) like a bodybuilder. And, of course means - Bodypart splits (Chest & Tri’s, Back & Bi’s, Shoulde...
