Tim Tebow Could Benefit from Kettlebell Exercises

By Greg Diener


Looking at the playoff loss he had against the New England Patriots, Tim Tebow will have to look at a lot of options to explore. One of them involves his throwing arm, which most experts believe could use a lot of improvement. Of course in the sport of football, any quarterback needs to have the ability to throw the ball across the field a great distance. Maybe one option for Tim Tebow to look at to improve his accuracy lies in kettlebells.

Kettle-bell weights, the metal weights with handles that are credited as a Russian invention, might be a perfect way for Tebow to work on his overall muscle and treatment. The ancient Greeks and Romans used similar weights. Even Chinese monks utilized padlock weights in much the same way as kettlebells are used.

While Tebow goes home to work out this off season, he will have ample time to work out. He may get the best and most effective workouts in terms of strength and conditioning from using kettlebells. Although the kettlebells won't help him with his foot speed or agility, they'll help him burn calories and be in better overall condition, which will contribute to the speed and agility. The workouts will also be far quicker, so Tebow will have plenty of downtime to study game tapes.

Even if Tebow goes home and only trains a few times a week with the kettlebells, he'll still be eradicating fat in his sleep due to the afterburn effect. This effect burns calories so efficiently that if Tebow needs to bury his sorrow in ice cream or cake, he probably won't gain additional weight because of the kettlebell afterburn affect.

This football fan was very morose to see Tebow lose against the Patriots. But maybe this will end up to be a good thing for him. He can invest his time getting into better shape than before, increasing his strength, and come back hungrier. If Tebow Nation wants to assist in their favorite quarterback's safety, they should send him some kettlebells. At least it'll be something novel, to keep him busy.
