The adjustable kettlebell is a beautiful design innovation. While the different designs of adjustable kettlebells can vary considerably, they all share one distinct advantage over traditional free weight sets or even entire sets of variously weighted kettlebells: they take up a whole lot less space in your home gym, garage or wherever you do your training. This can yield some dramatic advantages, considering that nobody has infinite storage space they can use for all kinds of equipment. Simply put, an adjustable kettlebell is going to let you train as if you had a well-stocked gym – because it pretty much is a gym you can carry around with you.

[...] I haven’t really done anything for core or upper body. I didn’t want to end up with T-Rex Syndrome. In fact, it’s from that site that I got the inspiration to do the 100 Pushup [...]

When I commute to the city (7.5 miles/30 mins), I do a few bench presses, lat pulls, etc., before hitting the shower at my gym. I’m not necessarily overweight, as I combine bike riding with a vegetarian diet, but I could use some toning, and I am 7-10 lbs overweight.

Having read this post, though, I’ve begun trying the 100 push-up plan. On my first day (yesterday), I did 7 push-ups using strict form. I was surprised that I could do so few. Oh well. Will try for 10 tomorrow morning.

I do 25 pushups 3x per week, 80 ab exercises 3x per week and yoga a minimum of 1x per week (prefer 2x). I don’t have any back issues so to speak of, nor shoulder issues and have a good core. I’m all about counterbalancing the cycling movements to make myself stronger.

I started P90X over the winter. I’ve only lost about 8 pounds but all that old gue has been replaced by muscle. I finished the program in May and started cycling 40+ miles Tues/Thurs/Sun with a choice P90X upper body routine (or P90X+, depending on how I feel and how much time I have) Mon, and again either Wed or Fri.

I’ve been very satisfied with this routine and never get bored with such a variety. P90X is pretty intense, but after two weeks you’re body gets adjusted. I think it would be near impossible to do the full program with a stiff cycling habit, but replace the cardio dvd’s with an evening on the bike and your good to go.

May I recommend a great book by Men’s Fitness called “Total Body Play”. It has 3 work out phases broken into 6 week periods. Each 6 week period is broken into two 3 week periods. Most exercises can be done at home with dumbells and the workouts only take 20 minutes or so(4 exercises a day). It is very comprehensive for those without a ton of time on their hands.
