5 Kettlebell Shoulder Workout for Broad Shoulders

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
When it comes to building broad, defined shoulders, few tools are as effective—or versatile—as the kettlebell. Unlike traditional dumbbells, kettlebells challenge your stability, engage your core, and promote functional strength that translates into real-world movements like lifting, pushing, and pulling. Beyond aesthetics, strong shoulders improve posture, reduce injury risk, and enhance overall athleticism. “Broad shoulders aren’t just about looking good—they’re about feeling strong and confident in everything you do,”   If you’re ready to sculpt powerful deltoids, improve your posture, and build a physique that commands attention, these five kettlebell shoulder workouts are your ticket.   1. Kettlebell Overhead Press The kettlebell overhead press is a foundational move for building strong, defined shoulders while improving posture and core stability. Hold a kettlebell in one hand at shoulder height, palm facing inward, with your elbow tucked close to your body. Press the kettlebell overhead until your arm is fully extended, keeping your core engaged and avoiding excessive arching of your lower back. Lower the kettlebell back to shoulder height with control, then switch arms after completing your set. Perform 3 sets of 8–12 reps per arm, using a weight that challenges you without compromising form. “This exercise isolates the shoulders while […]

Does TikTok’s 3-2-1 Fitness Method Actually Work? We Asked the Experts

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
Social media loves a workout trend. Just look at the 12-3-30 workout, the 75 soft challenge, or even the 30-30-30 rule. We can’t quite put our finger on it, but include a number in the name, and watch the workout go viral. Maybe the numerals make the routine sound more official (although we know to be careful when taking advice from fitfluencers). Or maybe the numbers offer some much-needed structure. Either way, there’s another numeric fitness trend gaining traction, and we think it’s time to talk about it. Enter: the 3-2-1 method. The 3-2-1 method is a weekly workout routine that calls for three days of strength training, two days of Pilates, and one day of cardio or conditioning. This combination is supposed to deliver consistent, impressive results (and with six days of exercise . . . it better). The regimen first began trending on TikTok in early 2023, but it’s maintained a stronghold in the fitness zeitgeist ever since, with influencers touting it as a universally effective workout plan. 3-2-1 has even inspired a few workout challenges, including the Alo Moves Reset. At first glance, this trend certainly seems legit — but is it really? And if the 3-2-1 […]

How Many Pushups Should You Be Able To Do?

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
The number of pushups you can do depends not only on your strength but also on a lot of other factors as well. Known as the simplest yet most effective exercise in your workout arsenal, pushups are a quintessential upper-body exercise that trains multiple key muscle groups. According to fitness experts, your ability to do push-ups indicates more than just how muscular your arms are — the number you can do also offers clues about your overall health. Recently on social media, people have been going gaga over the 11-push-up challenge, which was started by Mel Robbins, a longevity expert and orthopaedic surgeon who believes “everyone should be able to do 11 push-ups—regular push-ups.” The clip took off on TikTok with thousands of women accepting the challenge and posting videos of their attempts at completing 11 push-ups from their feet. But where does this number come from, and are there any markers of overall health? How many push-ups are ideal for you? According to a study conducted by Harvard researchers, middle-aged men should be able to perform at least 20 push-ups to get a significantly lower all-cause mortality risk over ten years. The study highlights the importance of maintaining muscular […]
