Total Body Kettlebell Sculpting Workout

The kettlebell is one of my favorite weights to work with because of its versatility. Kettlebell training works your entire body.

You can use a kettlebell in many different ways. For some kettlebell exercises, you will hold the handle of the kettlebell, which means the weight is further away from your body. This will challenge your balance and core. For other exercises you will hold the weight part of the kettlebell, this will challenge your total body strength.

I have put together some of my favorite kettlebell exercises in this video. You will not only sculpt awesome muscles, but also burn fat and have a lot of fun in the process.

If you do not have access to a kettlebell, you can use a dumbbell for most of these exercises. Or I have found a gallon water jug is a great household item to swap out.

Follow the video or print the workout instructions below:


A. Progression circuit: Do the following circuit three times, advancing the exercises each round as instructed. If an advancement feels too challenging for you today, you can always do one of the previous variations. (40 seconds on – 20 seconds off, 12-minutes)
