The KettleBell “I was looking for a way to pile on some mass and size, while staying lean. Sgt Shanahan introduced me to KettleBell workouts and they have been the perfect antidote. Not only have I gained size and strength, but it only took a few weeks and I’m ripped. What happened to my body was truly incredible and I have been working out for over 25 years. If there is one workout tool I recommend to everyone, no matter what stage of fitness you are at, it’s the KettleBell.”

Funk Roberts, www.funkroberts.com

“This old-school piece of equipment is a throwback to the dawn of strength training; many of you may not be familiar with it. After a brief introduction to its physique values, I feel confident you’ll soon give KettleBell-style training a try.”

Joe Weider Legend & Editor of Muscle & Fitness Magazine

“Sgt Shanahan’s KettleBell workout has been the best thing I have ever done for my fitness! I am now stronger, fitter and more flexible than when I was in my twenties. My core strength has increased dramatically, my posture has improved, and I am getting many comments about how ‘ripped’ I look. I’ve been doing gym workouts for years, but it has been Shanahan’s KettleBells that have pushed me to new levels. I love how versatile and effective they are, and being able to workout almost anywhere, whether in my home or outdoors in the park, gives me a real sense of workout freedom. KettleBells are the total workout package, and Shanahan knows KettleBells! Ryan is a true professional, and it shows in his knowledge, passion and dedication to both the industry and his clients.”

KettleBells are #1

Are you stuck in a work out rut?

No need to purchase a gym membership.

Two KettleBells are all that you need to increase endurance, lose fat , build size and strength.

The Benefits of KettleBells 1. KettleBell training is a form of training that will not only improve the appearance of your physique, it will enhance athletic performance in all sports

2. KettleBells Work Outs can be done anywhere. You can train in your apartment, backyard, garage, a park or on the beach.

3. KettleBells do not take up much space.

4. KettleBells are time efficient . KettleBells deliver an effective workout that can be done in half the time of a traditional workout, while producing twice the results

What is a KettleBell?

Developed in Europe over a century ago, a KettleBell is a skillfully crafted iron weight that is shaped like a ball and is equipped with a suitcase-like handle. KettleBell weight typically ranges from 5 to 35 pounds, going up to 100+ pounds for advanced athletes.

You can do standard weight training exercises with KettleBells such as: bench presses, curls, and rows. However, the unique value of KettleBells is derived from fast flowing exercises such as: KettleBell Swings and Twists.

4

KettleBell Flow exercises are not the only exercises that you can benefit from, KettleBell exercises such as: KB Holds, Side Bends , Prayer sits and Windmills will develop a rock-hard midsection and increase shoulder and back flexibility.

As a result, many chiropractors are using KettleBells with their patients for rehab.

You may be thinking that you could do all of the above exercises with dumbbells. Anyone that has used both will tell you that KettleBells are much more challenging to handle and yes in this case, challenging is much better.

KettleBell handles are much thicker than dumbbells forcing the hands to squeeze harder which will give you strong and toned arms in no time.

The off centered weight of a KettleBell will force you to use more stabilizer and core muscles .

Also more muscles are targeted through a longer range of motion, resulting in more Calories and Fat being burned .

For athletes the ballistic shock of KettleBells teaches you how to absorb shock efficiently which is critical for sports such as: MMA, football, and Hockey. The above reasons are why top strength coaches recommend KettleBell training to their athletes.

Athletes are not the only ones that are hooked on KettleBell training. Members of the entertainment world such as such as Jennifer Lopez, Penelope Cruz, Lance Armstrong, Mariska Hargitay, Sylvester Stallone, Claire Danes, Kim Cattrall and Matthew McConaughey — are trading in traditional barbells and dumbbells in favor of KettleBells to stay fit.

No doubt about it, high rep KettleBell training is an aerobic workout and great alternative to stepping classes and spinning classes.

Give the following KettleBell work outs a shot for 7 weeks, follow my nutrition plan and any excess fat that you have will melt off rapidly while giving you an incredible muscular body.

I assure you that there is no going back to doing those boring and endless leg raises, barbell curls and regular squats ever again. ‘KettleBells are #1’

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is KettleBell training the ultimate way to train?

A: Yes, KettleBells are the ultimate way to train. KettleBell training is effective for fat loss, strength training, sculpting muscle and it is a super fun way to train.

Q: Are KettleBell exercises dangerous?

A: Thus far, there have been no severe injuries related to KB training. Any exercise is dangerous even pushups and gym machine exercises when poor form is used. People die every year from bench pressing. Bottom line is most people will require either ’in person’, DVD, or a KettleBell How To manual to maximize the benefits of KettleBell training safely.

Q: Is KettleBell training effective for fat loss?

A: KettleBell training is a very effective way to ramp up your metabolism. Always remember, you cant lose fat with KettleBell training and a crappy diet. Fat loss is 50% diet and 50% training.

Q: I want to get stronger without getting bigger.

Is KettleBell training for me?

A: Yes, this is one of the most popular benefits of KettleBell training. KettleBell training is very popular with members of the Navy Seals because they keep the body strong , lean and agile

6

Q: If KettleBell training is so great, how come they are not in every gym in the country?

A: The trend in most clubs is to have more machines and less free weights. While machines are not as effective as free weights, they are much easier to use and require minimal instruction.

Thus, less of a need for highly skilled trainers. If a gym adds KettleBells they also have to pay to have their trainers educated in proper KettleBell instruction. Also, the last thing a fitness club wants you to know is that you can get in great shape at home with only 2 KettleBells.

Q: What size KettleBell should I start off with?

A: Most men do well starting with two 35lbs KettleBells, then progressing to two 50lbs KettleBells once strength progresses. Women usually start with two 10lbs KettleBells, progressing to two 15 or 20lbs KettleBells. Learn proper technique first and then move on to the more challenging KB weight.

Q: Where do I get KettleBells?

A: Several companies make KettleBells. After searching high and low my #1 pick are The TreadMill Factory KettleBells . They offer the best quality and most affordable KettleBells on the market.

The ‘Mega Ripped Muscle’ 50 Day Nutrition Program

Without question, a sound nutritional program is instrumental when it comes to building muscle, enhancing performance, and melting fat. The bottom line is that nutrition involves the proper manipulation of these three macro nutrients.

PROTEIN

CARBOHYDRATES

LIPIDS (fats)

PROTEIN Taken from the greek word meaning ‘of prime importance’.

It goes without saying that protein is fundamental when it comes to building muscle and the #1 macro nutrient you be concerned with while on this program.

While on ‘Mega Ripped Muscle’ program, aim to consume at minimum one gram of protein per pound of body weight per day. Space your protein intake over 4-6 meals per day.

Choose these high quality protein sources: > Whey protein Powder > Chicken Breasts > Steak- eye of round cut > Fish > Eggs > Skim milk > Low fat cheese

CARBOHYDRATES Carbohydrates serve as a major energy source for the body.

Carbs are an absolutely essential component of any serious muscle gain diet. Without adequate carbohydrate intake, energy levels will be compromised and muscles will take on deflated balloon appearance — definitely something you don’t want.

While on the ‘Mega Ripped Muscle’ program, aim to consume 3 grams of carbohydrate per pound of body weight per day, again divided over 4-6 meals/day.

22

Choose high quality, slow burning carbs like: > Oatmeal > Bran Cereals – low sugar brands > Sweet Potatoes > Whole grain breads > All vegetables > Chick Peas The above list of carbs are excellent choices to help give you that solid muscle appearance.

LIPIDS (fats) Lipids constitute the principal structural material of living cells. Essential fats have an important role in a muscle gain diet and the best sources are: > Flax Seed Oil > Fish & Fish Oils > Raw Nuts While on the ‘Mega Ripped Muscle’ Program , it’s highly recommended that you increase your intake of essential fats, while reducing your intake of saturated fats and trans-saturated fats (French fries) Add flax seed oil to salads, eat fish at least 3 times per week and eat nuts like Raw almonds and walnuts as snacks.

WATER Make sure to drink water all day long. I drink a glass when I wake up and keep going. Most people are chronically dehydrated.

SUPPLEMENTS The harder you train the more supplements you require.

Your ‘Mega Ripped Muscle’ Supplement Shopping List Multi Mineral & Vitamin paks Exercise performance can be impaired if the body’s vitamin and mineral requirements are not met. This is why the active person must add extra vitamin and mineral intake in order to keep in tip-top shape!

New Zealand Whey Protein Powder Whey Protein powder is a crucial component for everyone looking to shape and tone, or build some serious muscle. Whey from New Zealand is #1 due to the fact that New Zealand has very strict quality control.

23

Fish Oil tablets and Flax Oil A brand new study in Australia tested the effects of fish oil and exercise on body fat composition.

The recent study actually demonstrates that fish oil does indeed produce fat loss.

Cell Volumizer powder mix Cell volumizers have become commonplace in the bodybuilding supplement world in recent years.

And for good reason. They work by transporting vital nutrients into the muscle cells. By doing this, you experience the visual effects of increased muscle fullness and vascularity along with the ability to train more intensely for longer periods of time, without tiring. A Must Buy.

The ‘Mega Ripped Muscle’ 50 Day Nutrition Program Meal #1 approx 8:00 am 1/3 cup of bran buds cereal or Oatmeal 1 cup of skim milk 6 egg whites hard boiled or scrambled 1 apple 500ml of water – coffee optional Meal #2 Mid Morning approx 10:30 am 2 slices of low fat cheese 2 slices of whole grain bread 1 banana 500ml of water Meal #3 lunch approx 1:00 pm 1 grilled chicken breast 1 cup of brown rice Large mixed greens salad with tomatoes, cucumbers, red peppers Fat free Italian vinaigrette 500ml of water Meal #4 Mid Afternoon snack approx 3:30pm Handful of Raw almonds or Walnuts 500ml of water Meal #5 Dinner approx 6:00 pm 6oz grilled tuna steak or eye of round steak 1 cup of chick peas or black beans 2 cups of steamed broccoli 500ml of water Meal #6 Early evening approx 3 hours before going to sleep Protein Shake mixed with Skim milk or water 2 tablespoons of Flax seed oil

24

To Insure the Best Progress Sharing equal importance with KettleBell training and diets is the right mental attitude.

You must approach all of your work outs with a positive outlook and the firm conviction that you will succeed no matter what – I call this ‘Ripatude’ as opposed to the lazy, self-doubting ‘Fatitude’ Make a mental picture of what you want your body to look like and then work determinedly for the next 50 days and get that body!

This booklet is intended to be a guide to help you build Mega Ripped Muscle. I have given you some of the best exercises and training methods to accomplish your physical goals.

The rest is up to you. Good Luck and Train Hard.
