This kettle bell exercise will help to build your arm strength.  Start out by standing with your feet shoulders width apart.  Keep your abs tight as you hold a kettle bell in each hand. Curl the weight in your right hand to where your wrist touches your shoulder.  Now lower it all the way to the floor and repeat the same motion on your left side.  Repeat this pattern for 2 sets of 12 repetitions to start.

Here is an alternative to an ordinary squat.  Begin the movement by holding a kettle bell in each hand.  Completely bend your elbows and place the weights up on each shoulder.  Keep your arms close to your body.  Point your toes out to each side and put one foot on a bosu ball with the other foot placed laterally, about four feet away.  Your abs should be tight as you bend your knees until your thighs are parallel to the floor.  Now come back to a standing position.  Repeat the movement for 2 sets of 12 repetitions (on each leg).

The plie squat can be intensified using added weight.  Begin this exercise by holding a kettle bell in each hand.  Place them up on each shoulder, completely bending the elbows, keeping them close to your body.  Now point your toes to each side and spread your feet about four feet apart.  Your abs should be clenched as you bend your knees until your thighs are parallel to the ground.  Now come back to a standing position.  Repeat the movement for 2 sets of 12 repetitions.
