At present, one can observe an increased interest of the strong half of humanity in kettlebell lifting. Many young guys began to go in for this kind of sport, respectively, more sections began to form, the number of competitions, the scale of which is very different, is increasing. It does not require large expenditures; it is not so difficult to pass the standards. Several positive aspects can be identified.
Positive aspects
I. Kettlebell lifting can be practiced individually or in groups.
Of course, it is better to study in some organized groups or specialized sections. But many working people cannot always attend GYM's at a certain time, due to the specifics of the work, they have to be dealt with individually. It's not that hard, because this sport doesn't need a lot of space. BUT training plan you can just take it in gyms.
II. The process of doing the exercises is simple.
All exercises that are included in the list of mandatory to be performed at the competitions are not very difficult. This is a push of two weights, a bench press of one weight, a snatch of one weight. The only thing that changes here is the weight of the kettlebell increases. It is not difficult to master these exercises, since you do not need to do any movements and complex maneuvers, as in other sports. In practice, it is clear that an athlete can master all the techniques and rules for performing exercises within approximately 5-6 months of training. And after eight months, you can easily fulfill the standards of kettlebell lifting.
III. Kettlebell lifting can be called the cheapest.
If we compare this sport with other sports, it is easy to understand that the material support here is not so voluminous. Kettlebells are durable sports equipment. The athlete's uniform is simple: a T-shirt and shorts and any sports shoes. This can be called an important factor compared to other sports, where a lot of money is spent on athletes' clothing. But in order to achieve a certain result in kettlebell lifting, it is necessary not only to lift the kettlebell, but also to do the necessary general development muscle mass sports. This includes simple running and cross-country skiing, as well as various exercises on flexibility, i.e. it will require certain material costs.
IV. There are practically no injuries in this sport and there is no age limit either.
There are no serious injuries, but there are such as breaking the skin on the palms, but these are trifles. The age gap among people involved in this sport is quite large. Kettlebell lifting does not require large physical investments, the standards must be passed to receive a category.
Important qualities of an athlete
Main physical qualities which an athlete involved in kettlebell lifting should possess is, of course, endurance and strength. Although other qualities are important. Since age does not matter much, it is possible to achieve great results and reach certain standards in any age period. Although the kettlebell has quite complex.
