You just need 1 kettlebell and 5 movements to build muscle all over and strengthen your core and boost your metabolism

Workout in the gym can be a great way to develop core strength and build muscle all over your body, but it's not the only way Instead, you can use this 5 movement routine developed by the Hi-Lox Master Trainer to build your whole body strengthAll you need is a kettle bell

These weights are a staple in most gyms and fitness centers, but investing in one of the best kettlebell is a great way to work out your home, especially if you're tight in space so you can pick up an adjustable version that combines some loads It can be a great way to add strength training to your workout

Then, with a kettlebell by your side, you're ready to take this exclusive workout from High Rocks Master Trainer Jake Dearden Don't worry if you haven't participated in a Hi—Rocks race before - this short workout is designed for all levels and will raise your heart rate, work your body muscles, and boost your metabolism even though you only need a single weight

 And, according to Dearden: "The versatility of [kettlebells] makes them perfect for a whole body workout, with limited space at home"

The routine is arranged as 5 moving circuits, and the aim is to hit a certain amount of reps per exercise In general, I am considering doing 12 repetitions in each round, but with the exception of bent rows, I do 6 repetitions on each side (left and right)

We often recommend High Intensity Resistance Training (HIRT) training aimed at doing as many reps as possible at certain times But in Dearden's session, he wants to hit the right muscles and focus on the form to avoid injury But that's not the only advantage

"[These] kettlebell exercises are ideal for engaging different muscles and increasing power and explosive with exercises such as swing that require increased wrist movement and allow you to effectively build strength through progressive challenges," Dearden explains

This variation of the Romanian Deadlift (RDL) is great for working your upper and lower body while engaging your core for balanceIf you have one in hand this will challenge your muscles, it is recommended to use a heavier weight1

This movement is designed for two weights, but you can adapt it if you only have a single kettlebell in hand

According to Dearden: "For this [variation of the squat], you can hold the kettle bell with either the handle or the bell Try to aim for a heavier weight

"You can perform these as a single arm exercise or with two kettlebells using both arms to make it slightly harder," Dearden If you are not familiar with this movement, you will use a similar technique with a bent row of dumbbells, shown in the video above It was a great experience 

The kettlebell swing is a classic movement that works your whole body and raises your heart rate As you shake the weight behind you and in front of you, it engages your heart to build intermediate body muscles and also challenges your stability The aim is to choose weights that "feel very challenging but can be high enough in the swing," Dearden says
