Strength-Based Fat Loss Programming: https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn-2/ Here in the Northern Hemisphere it’s almost beach/pool season. And that means you want to have the confidence to take your shirt off or wear your trunks without shame instead of looking like the Michelen Man or shaped like a Christmas tree. Which brings us to Fat Loss Mistake #7 in our series of the Top 10 Kettlebell Fat Loss Workout Mistakes. Many people ramp up their “cardio” or their “conditioning” when they’re trying to lose fat. This can be a BIG MISTAKE because research shows us that extra endurance activity can increase cortisol levels. And, as we’ve talked about at length, most people who are 20 to 30 pounds overweight already have high circulating cortisol levels… … Which is one of the reasons they “can’t lose weight.” They’re trapped in a vicious cycle. You can learn more about that here if you’d like. https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-ghfl-4/ And as they increase their “cardio,” th...

- Use ‘THE GIANT’ like Michael did. https://chasingstrength.com/giant-app/ - Or use Kettlebell MAXIMORUM like Jason did. https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ A lot of folks shake their head in disbelief when I tell them what kind of results they can have using simple KB programs just a few times per week, with limited time. They just don’t believe it’s possible. Or at least not for them. That’s why I love it when customers send me their results from using my programs. Like this one, from Michael, age 58. He sent over his latest DEXA scan (one of the best ways for measuring body composition). His results? Following ‘THE GIANT 3.0’ using one 24kg KB, he reported the following: “Lost 4.3 lbs of fat and added 10.3 lbs of lean tissue in only 4 weeks.” Sure, he’s gotten back what he lost due to being sick. BUT… He’s gained even more. Here are the numbers I pulled from his DEXA: 6/13/2023: Total BF % - 30.1%, Lean Tissue - 146.7 lbs 4/2/2024: Total BF% - 28.0%, Lean Tissue -...

Sometimes slowly. Sometimes like fire through a dry wheatfield on a hot summer’s day. The key is two-fold: [1] Using a properly constructed KB workout program [2] Supporting your workouts with the right kind of foods Now some people get lucky and stumble on the first. But many, if not most, fall down face first on the second. The “right kind of foods” practically force your body to burn off your stored (and unwanted) bo...

For single kettlebell technique, use this. https://salutis.kartra.com/page/BIG6-2 For double kettlebell technique, which is built on top of the single, this has stood the test of time. https://chasingstrength.com/kettlebells/strong/ I recently had the great pleasure to work with Mike on his technique via a one-on-one Zoom call. We ran through his Swing, finding the perfect position for him. Then the Clean, and dialed in his start position, then his kettlebell start position. (There are 4 different kettlebell starting “set ups” - the position the kettlebells start in on the floor relative to your body.) Then we worked on his Military Press - both single and double. I have a whole sequence I run folks through, and there generally a lot of “a-ha” moments. I thought I’d pass Mike’s biggest “a-ha” moment on to you to see if it made your Press feel stronger, Here it is: “Before you Press, grip the ground with your feet. Imagine you have roots growing out of them, like a tree, then Press.” Te...

To Burn Fat Using Single Kettlebell Exercises - Kettlebell Burn 2.0 https://go.chasingstrength.com/burn-sa3/ For “Re-Comping” - Kettlebell MAXIMORUM https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ For Burning Off Stomach Fat WITHOUT Dieting - Kettlebell GHFL https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-ghfl-4/ One of the reasons people fail to see the progress they’re looking for when it comes to “weight loss” is they’re focused on the WRONG THING. They’re using incomplete data to determine their success. The #1 problem? They’re only using the scale to track / measure their progress. Why’s this a bad thing? Because the scale measures WEIGHT NOT MASS. The difference? MASS is the amount of material. WEIGHT is the measure of force acting on that material due to gravity. The scale doesn’t tell you your FAT MASS - how MUCH FAT you have. Nor does it tell you your FAT FREE MASS - or muscle and organs. So, you can actually “weigh less” but gain fat. See, people don’t really want to “lose w...

Kettlebell STRONG! https://cart.chasingstrength.com/strong4 Kettlebell HARD! https://cart.chasingstrength.com/hard3b A lot of people “go through the motions” with fat loss programming. They show up, and punch the clock, and “hope” it’s enough. But the truth is, it’s not. As I mentioned in an earlier email, you need to CHALLENGE your body so it has to change. Otherwise, it remains the same. One way to make that happen is EP - Exercise Progression. For example: Single Military Press → Double Military Press → Single Push Press → Double Push Press → Single Jerk → Double Jerk 2-Hand Swing → 1-Hand Swing → Single Clean → Single Snatch Each progression increases the skill and energy demand from your body. Now, that’s the OBVIOUS EP - the EXTERNAL EP. But… There’s a less obvious, practically hidden EP - called INTERNAL EP. And that’s where on each set, you focus on refining your technique by layering in cues that: [1] Reduce / eliminate “strength leaks” and [2] Increase power output … On each ...
