How To Use Unconventional Fitness Gear Like Kettlebells, Battleropes, Maces, Clubs And More!
Let's face it: while all you need to get hella strong is a heavy barbell, it can sometimes be nice to beat the boredom, to challenge your brain and body in new ways and to be able to branch out and diversify your training with unconventional and slightly weird fitness gear.
So in today's show, I interview John Wolf, the Director of Fitness Education for the Onnit Academy, and a guy who trains people with kettlebells, clubs, maces, sandbags, suspension training tools or with no equipment at all. In this podcast, we fill you in on everything you need to know about how to use unconventional fitness gear:
-Why the Onnit kettlebells have monkey and zombie faces on them...
-How to use a battlerope for both cardio and strength building exercises...
-The origin of the mace as a conditioning tool, and how you can use a mace...
-Why something called a steelbell may work better for you than a sandbag...
-How you can use clubs to increase shoulder mobility, strength and cognitive performance...
-The craziest full body workout you can do with unconventional equipment, including the Viking Warrior Mace Flow...
