Kettlebell effectiveness for football, wrestling, etc.

Posted on 8/30/2004 at 5:21PM in Improving sports performance .

In the ad for the kettlebell training video it states that this is a great way to train for football, and other combat sports. How is it better than regular power cleans, deadlifts, squats and presses? This is what the majority feel is the best way of working the athlete to a maximum attempt in these lifts, thus overall strength gained.

Help me understand how lightweight kettlebells are as effective? Maybe I am missing something. Did the Russians in wrestling and boxing use the kettlebell or some other form of training?
