In the fitness equipment industry, weight plates, as crucial gear for strength training, directly impact training effectiveness and safety. Standard plates and competition-grade plates cater to different usage scenarios, adhering to vastly different testing standards. Today, let Bao Peng take us behind the scenes to uncover the mysteries between these two types and explore their key differences!
1. Full-body compound training, double efficiency
The center of gravity of the kettlebell is deviated from the handle design, which determines that it can achieve full-body compound training. In the classic kettlebell swing action, from the arm holding force, to the shoulder coordination and stability, to the core tightening and transmission force, and finally the leg muscle group linkage explosion, the whole body muscles work together like gears.
Compared with dumbbell isolated training, which needs to be completed in different parts, a kettlebell set of movements can cover more than 80% of the main muscle groups. According to actual tests by fitness coaches, using a 16kg kettlebell to complete a 10-minute swing + 10-minute squat + 10-minute Turkish get-up combination training consumes the same amount of calories as jogging for 40 minutes, and increases muscle engagement by 35%, truly achieving "time-saving and efficient full-body training"
2.Improve both explosive power and coordination to break through training bottlenecks
Kettlebell training can accurately overcome the shortcomings of traditional strength training. In dynamic movements such as kettlebell snatches and high flips, the trainer needs to quickly exert force to lift the kettlebell from the ground to the chest or the top of the head. This process can activate fast muscle fibers and significantly improve explosive power. The national fitness coach pointed out that long-term kettlebell explosive power training can increase the vertical jump height by 8%-12%.
At the same time, the irregular center of gravity of the kettlebell forces the body to continuously adjust the balance. When completing movements such as rotation and swinging, the neuromuscular control system operates at high speed, which can simultaneously strengthen the body's coordination and core stability. For the common body imbalance problems of sedentary people, kettlebell training can play a targeted improvement role.
3.Zero venue restrictions, easy use of fragmented time
The small size of kettlebells completely breaks the constraints of fitness venues. With a diameter of less than 30 cm, kettlebells can be used for training in just one square meter of space, whether in the living room, office corner, or outdoor park. Office workers can use 15 minutes of lunch break to do kettlebell swings, and mothers can complete a few sets of kettlebell squats while their children are taking a nap, truly realizing "making the most of every opportunity" fitness.
There are a variety of weight options, 3 kg is suitable for children's enlightenment, 8-16 kg is suitable for women's body shaping, and more than 20 kg meets the needs of men to improve their strength. And there is no need for complicated assembly, you can train right out of the box, avoiding the trouble of installing large equipment, making it easier to stick to the fitness plan.
Today, kettlebells have become the "standard equipment" in gyms, homes, and studios. They use scientific design to interpret the fitness philosophy of "small equipment with great power", allowing busy modern people to gain efficient training results in 30 minutes. This is the core code for the continued popularity of kettlebells.
