Posted by Christian Aguirre on Wed, Jan 06, 2010 @ 05:00 PM
In our 4th series, Jenn will demonstrate a the "Darcy Throw." This is a great full body workout that promotes weight loss because in this exercise, you are using more 5 major muscles.
The more muscles activated during any exercise at the same time increases the need for more oxygen. The more oxygen needed to support muscle activation will increase metabolism. The faster your metabolism is, the faster your weight loss efforts will increase east bay.
So here are the muscle parts that are being used during this exercise:
- lower back
- core
- glutes
- hamstrings
- hip flexor
- shoulders
- trapezius

The kettlebell "Darcy Throw" is the next progression. Just like the first 3 videos, you will want to start in the squat position holding onto the kettlebell by the horns between your legs.
You will then thrust your hips, core, glutes, & hamstrings up and out of the squat position.
While swinging the kettlebell to eye level, you will want to let go of the kettlebell and in mid-air catch the kettlebell with the other hand.
When catching the kettlebell with the other hand it is very important that you control the weight with your core and stabilize so that the weight of the kettlebell pulls your upper body forward.
So when performing this exercise it is very important to use core strength to protect you back from any potential injuries when lowering the weight.
Because this exercise takes a lot of coordination, stability, and activation of many muscles simultaneously, it will help promote weight loss a lot faster than traditional weight training.
