Below are some examples of the special programs Adriana’s training style offers:

Kettle Bell Program

Adriana is a certified instructor in Russian Kettle Bell Challenge (RKC).

The kettlebell or girya (Russian: гиря) is a cast iron weight looking somewhat like a cannonball with a handle. The kettlebell has become a popular exercise tool in the United States due largely to the efforts of Pavel Tsatsouline, a strength and flexibility coach, and also by Kettlebell Sport world champion and world record holder Valery Fedorenko. Many companies produce their own brands of kettlebells and kettlebell exercise programs. Some modern kettlebells feature adjustable weights. Kettlebell workouts are intended to increase strength, endurance, agility and balance, challenging both the muscular and cardiovascular system with dynamic, total-body movements.

Kettlebell lifting has been nationally recognized and played throughout the world for decades, and its competitive exercises are the ‘Two Kettlebell Jerk’ and ‘One Kettlebell Snatch’; performed in that order for ten minutes each. The competitor with the highest overall score wins.

In recent years, kettlebells have become popular among athletes, especially mixed martial artists and those in the entertainment community.

The kettlebell has a reputation amongst its followers as being able to condition the whole body with a relatively simple plan.

Some Basic Exercises with KettleBells:

Kettlebell swing

The Swing is the “CORE” exercise of the kettlebell training. The kettllebell swing will help you develop powerful and flexible hips that any athlete can use in any sport or athletic activity.

This conditioning movement is performed either one-handed or two-handed. The kettlebell swings at arm’s length from between the legs to approximately head-level, with the legs, hips, and lower back providing the motive force. The arms should simply swing with the kettlebell and put little direct effort into the technique other than to loosely but securely hold on to the kettlebell, which in itself can help to increase grip and forearm strength.  Kettlebell snatch

The Snatch

Similar to a traditional snatch, the weight moves from a lower position to over the head with the arm extended. The Snatch will help you develop strong and stable shoulders as well as defined biceps and triceps without having to do a single bicep curl seated on a static machine at the gym.

Kettlebell jerk

A competition lift, like the kettlebell snatch, this lift culminates with the weight overhead at arms’ length. Kettlebell Power Clean Squat Thrust

A complicated lift that requires first a lifting the kettlebell to about chest height, then squatting, and then finally thrusting the kettlebell to above the head (in a similar movement to a dumbbell overhead squat).

CORE STABILIZATION AND CONDITIONING

The intent of core training is to strengthen the muscle groups that stabilize your skeletal structure. These are primarily the muscles in the thoracic area that determine your posture in each sport and in effect link your upper and lower body. The muscle groups are important to strengthen.

Core training helps get you ‘in touch’ with individual muscles and small groups of muscles. This awareness of specific muscles, or muscle groups is the first step in improving various posture and form issues. For example, many adults (and plenty of athletes) have poor posture stemming from weak mid-back muscles (rhomboids). This particular posture issue looks badly and can negatively impact of our three muscle groups.
