Have you noticed how many kettlebell workouts include the kettlebell swing? Don’t get me wrong, the swing provides a blowout full-body workout, but if you just want a break from them, here’s a muscle-torching workout to try.

This three-move kettlebell workout sculpts muscles all over, including the same muscles targeted by the kettlebell swing — without it. Hit your shoulders, arms, back, glutes, hamstrings, core and hip flexor muscles hard using these kettlebell exercises suitable for beginners or advanced gym-goers.
