Kettle Bell Tricep Kickback, On a Balance Board
To do this tricep exercise, you can begin by holding a kettle bell in your right hand. Clench your abs tightly, kneel down on a balance board and place your left hand on the floor in front of you. Throughout the exercise you must keep your balance by engaging your abs. Now bring the weight to your shoulder as your elbow becomes pointed backward. Next, straighten your arm back behind you until it is parallel to the floor. Bring the weight back to your shoulder and repeat for 2 sets of 12 (on each arm).

One Arm Kettle Bell Swing
Try this exercise to help build strength in your arms and legs using a kettle bell. Start the movement by clenching your abs. Bend at the waist to lift the kettle bell from the floor with your right hand. Continue to squeeze your abs and come to a standing position. Place your left arm straight out at your side. Now bend at your knees to do a squat. Bend to where your thighs are parallel to the ground and let the weight fall between your legs. Now, as you come to a standing position, swing the weight straight out in front of you until it is at eye level. Squeeze your abs, glutes and thighs to keep your balance and to protect your back. Repeat for 2 sets of 12 repetitions (on each arm) to start.
