The kettlebell basics don't look great on social media, but they work. What are "the basics," you might be asking? They're your day-to-day compound exercises, which are multi-joint, multi-muscle moves that are functional and make you stronger and more resilient, not just in the gym, but in everyday life.
And to make these moves matter, we need to use a principle called progressive overload alongside consistency to see results. That means rather than random, one-off workouts, we stick to a routine for a period of time and adapt it as we get fitter and stronger to keep the body and its many muscles challenged.
