And if anyone knows the best way to build lean and mean muscle, it’s Skye. Need proof? Check out this total-body kettlebell workout.
Kettlebells are a great way to build muscle throughout the body. And because the weighted cast-iron spheres are super versatile, you can integrate them into all of your favorite exercises. For example, try adding a kettlebell to your classic burpee, adding a row movement when you pop up to standing after your plank.
