How Kettlebells Can Assist Aspiring Superheroes

By Rob Sutter


So you want to be a superhero? Well, who doesn't want to have marvelous powers and be admired by millions of people? Unless you get bitten by a radioactive spider or are born on a distant, probably now extinct planet, your chances are seemingly closer to you becoming Kick-Ass than Superman. You know what could help you though? Try a different kind of training routine. Kettlebells and its exercises are a definite way to help you get in shape.

The problem that I have with Kick-Ass, above all else, is the fact that the hero itself is not amazingly powerful. He isn't as muscular as other crime-fighters would be and his level of strength simply wasn't up to par. Who's to say that he couldn't utilize kettlebell training in order to shift these shortcomings into his most dangerous assets? If nothing else, I'm sure that he would have less time battling his foes in the heat of battle; even his punches were pitiful.

Kettlebells give off quite possibly one of the most intense, physical exercise regimens that you can imagine. It's not enough to just lounge around once you have these weights in your possession. Rather, you have to participate since activity is the only way to make the most out of them. You'll soon see the benefits of them, though, ranging from strength to agility. Your normal gym workouts are dwarfed in comparison to this regimen and fitness authorities the likes of Lorna will be able to help you use them well.

Superheroes have many burdens on their time. From inventing an original costume to sustaining their alternate identities, they are very busy people. Fortunately for them, these unique set of workouts take noticeably less time than standard gym workouts. After all, who has time to battle crime, take on the evildoers of the world, and run on a treadmill for an hour a day like an oversized hamster?

If Kick-Ass had used the weights in question, chances are tinier that he would have gotten beaten up so badly and so often. His arm, back, abdominal, and other muscles would have been greatly enhanced. He would have had greater strength and endurance to brawl. And if all else failed, his advanced muscle development and increased agility would have enabled him to run away that much faster.
