Believe it or not at first, F1 drivers are some of the best athletes on the planet. However, reaching peak fitness levels is not an easy task as they need to keep their weight relatively light, but the muscles that help them withstand the enormous g-force exerted on them during the race are strong. ..
So how do F1 racers train? A closer look at Max Verstappen’s workout reveals Australia’s F1 hotshot and current member of the McLaren F1 team, Daniel Ricciardo, for a much more informative workout on these six exercise kettlebell circuits. I will be able to do it.
After completing his training outside with some friends, Daniel’s six exercise kettlebell circuits include the following moves:
- Renegade row of push-ups: Place a kettlebell under each shoulder for push-ups. Do push-ups, grab one of the kettlebells and line up towards your hips. Consider driving your elbows to the sky to help. Perform another push-up and perform a row on the other side.
- Step up to Highney: This move requires a small step. Grab the dumbbells in both hands with the overhand grip. Bring them just above your shoulders (they can rest on you if you want). Step up to the platform or step on one front leg and raise the rear leg up to straighten up. That is, do not rest your hind legs on the platform. Get off and do the same on the other side.
- Kneeling halo: Kneel down and hold the dumbbells with both hands. Move the kettlebell around your head in a circular motion.
- Wall Sit Bus Driver: Turn your back to the wall and crouch until your knees are at right angles. From here, hold the kettlebell directly in front of you with both hands. Rotate your wrist as if you were holding the handle, 90 degrees to the left and 90 degrees to the right. Complete 10 iterations on each side.
- Reverse lunge by twist: Daniel actually uses a weighting ball for this movement, but it can also be used with a kettlebell. From a standing position, retreat with one foot and crouch down to perform a reverse lunge. When you reach the bottom position, rotate your body to the opposite side of your hind legs (if you recede with your left leg, rotate your body to the right). Return to the starting position and play on the other side.
- American Swing: This movement is similar to a standard kettlebell swing, but you can see the kettlebell rising above your head instead of straight forward. Hold the kettlebell with both hands using the overhand grip and start from a standing position. Please hang it between your legs. Hinge your hips to push your hips back. Bring the kettlebell under and behind your feet, then move your hips forward and swing the kettlebell over your head.
Run each exercise for 40 seconds each and rest for 20 seconds between each exercise. For example, you can choose to run in a specified number of sets (for example, 6) or keep the circuit working for 20-30 minutes. In any case, you can be assured of winning the World Champion.
