\u201cKettlebell exercises require the core to stabilize and transmit force rather than just flex the spine,\u201d explains Ellis. \u201cSingle-arm and offset movements force the core to resist rotation and lateral bending, helping to build deep trunk stability.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re new to working out, Ellis recommends starting with a light-to-medium weight before progressing gradually.<\/p>\n

\u201cFocus on form, breath control and ensuring a neutral spine before adding extra weight,\u201d Ellis advises. \u201cOnce a set feels easy and can be performed with perfect form, you can increase weight by 4lb-8lb (2kg-4kg), add more reps or slow down the reps.\u201d<\/p>\n
