Building muscle and strength is no easy task. Everyone knows it takes hard work and commitment inside and outside of the gym. But it doesn’t have to be complicated. If you want to get stronger and get bigger, pick up a kettlebell and follow this total-body kettlebell workout routine. It only requires four moves, a total of five rounds, and a kettlebell weight of 45 to 60 pounds.

KETTLEBELL WEIGHT: 20 to 28 kg (45 to 60 lbs) NUMBER OF ROUNDS: 3 to 5 REST BETWEEN ROUNDS: 1 to 2 minutes. You’re going heavy on this one. But there are fewer rounds and more rest. No matter how heavy you go, make sure to preserve form.
