This workout is designed to build strength, muscle, and endurance while keeping your training highly functional. Inspired by the #twobellsoverhead philosophy, the goal is simple but effective: the majority of your training volume ends with the kettlebells overhead-similar to weightlifters who are renowned for their muscular, powerful physiques. In this video, I’ll walk you through the exact workout I use, featuring the four kettlebell exercises that have helped me pack on muscle and stay lean over 40. I also explain why training overhead is a game-changer for functional strength and muscle growth, and how this method replicates what makes Olympic weightlifters so strong and jacked. If you’re looking to transform your body, boost your performance, and build functional muscle, this video is for you. Whether you're a kettlebell enthusiast or just starting out, these exercises will take your training to the next level. Why #twobellsoverhead Works: This philosophy emphasizes the importance of building strength where it counts-overhead. It’s not just about lifting heavy; it’s about improving joint stability, core strength, and overall functional power. This approach mimics the training style of weightlifters, who are known for their incredible upper-body strength and muscular development. Who This Workout Is For: - Men and women over 40 who want to build muscle safely and effectively - Kettlebell enthusiasts looking for a powerful, muscle-building routine - Functional fitness lovers who want strength that translates into daily life EMOM Training Protocol (Efficiency Meets Intensity): We’ll use a 90-second EMOM format, with 30 seconds of work and 1 minute of rest, for 4 rounds. This gives you the perfect balance of intensity and recovery to maximize muscle growth and endurance. Benefits of This Workout: - Builds upper-body strength and size - Boosts core stability and control - Increases shoulder health and mobility - Torches fat while building lean muscle - Improves functional, everyday strength Related Content You’ll Love: - 10 Essential Kettlebell Strength Exercises for Men Over 40 (insert-link) - How Kettlebells Burn Fat and Build Muscle at the Same Time (insert-link) - Why the Clean & Jerk is the Ultimate Muscle Builder (insert-link) Ready to transform your body after 40?

I was looking for targeting specifically my hamstring and quadriceps with kettlebells . Please make a video dedicated to these muscles apart from front squats
That's like saying you want a back workout without pull ups, or a shoulder workout without an overhead press. The front squat is THE most optimal exercise for quads using kettlebells. If you want to focus on hamstrings with kettlebells then you'd super set RDLs and deadlifts after your front squats. If you're not interested in front squats then maybe a Bulgarian squat with a kettlebell.
To really target quads, you can do squats (front, goblet, 1-hand rack, whatever you want) on a slant board. The slant board forces the knees over the toes and targets the quads more. Start lighter than your usual squat to ease the knee ligaments into the new challenge they face.
It’s amazing what a difference it makes to have a train to die for technique. You talked about the kettlebell wobbling on your jerk and I don’t see it at all. I’ve been training with kettle bells for a couple years, but most of it’s been on my own in my garage, so I haven’t quite learned how to recognize those little technique points yet. Awesome job with the new Gaines!
Probably a bad question since Levi outlined everything in your podcasts but will you turn this into a program? I work out 4x times a week with 45-60 minute sessions. I’d love to try this out, my training is getting a little stale so it’s time to change things up.
Hey Gregory, vielen Dank für deine Videos ! Ich habe bisher die letzen 2-3 Jahre Calisthenics trainiert und habe jetzt eine 16 und 24 KG Kettlebell zuhause. Denkst du single KB würde den gleichen Effekt erzielen ?:)

You ARE looking bigger!
YOU are a beast, Gregory! Some of these workouts have strained my lowback & that's when I know it's time to back off a bit.
BEAST MODE ON GREGORY
Shout out to Levi for the 2 bells overhead philosophy. Definitely noticing benifits!
Levi's work is my TRT! #hardertokill
I just barely started it but it's definitely a game changer.
Gregory I love your double KBs overhead method.
It’s where it’s at! Credit goes to Levi Markwardt. 🔥
Coach's hair game is on point! 👌
You already know!

Summersault squats bro (for quads)
That's like saying you want a back workout without pull ups, or a shoulder workout without an overhead press. The front squat is THE most optimal exercise for quads using kettlebells. If you want to focus on hamstrings with kettlebells then you'd super set RDLs and deadlifts after your front squats.

Thank you for the reminder about the face muscles 💪
You want gains, and gains you've earned. You're getting bigger my guy, keep up the good work.
That's the plan!
Excellent video 💯 Advice at 16:30 is so important - a clarification that is often missed 🙌
It’s amazing what a difference it makes to have a train to die for technique. You talked about the kettlebell wobbling on your jerk and I don’t see it at all. I’ve been training with kettle bells for a couple years, but most of it’s been on my own in my garage, so I haven’t quite learned how to recognize those little technique points yet.
Awesome job with the new Gaines!
Recently caused myself sciatica, any tips for lifting bells overhead?
Hi Gregory, thanks for the video! Do you have a regime for maintaining your palms? When I get callous rips it delays further training. Thanks 👍
Yes! Chaffing off callouses with a pumice stone, and then using some form of immediate hand care.
@lebe-stark Thanks! 😎
Probably a bad question since Levi outlined everything in your podcasts but will you turn this into a program?
I work out 4x times a week with 45-60 minute sessions. I’d love to try this out, my training is getting a little stale so it’s time to change things up.
Tried to get the e-book several times. I keep getting the runaround. What am I doing wrong?
Mine came in my email after a little bit
Did you immediately confirm your email address? The ebook goes out three times in a matter of hours.
What kind of wrist guards are you wearing?
Nothing fancy
Why don't you do getups as part of your warmup?
He doesn’t like them. He has expressed he doesn’t see value in them compared to other training he’s done.
Gregory , why don’t you make a video about single kettlebell complexes ?
We have tons of videos about single bell work.
Hey Gregory, vielen Dank für deine Videos ! Ich habe bisher die letzen 2-3 Jahre Calisthenics trainiert und habe jetzt eine 16 und 24 KG Kettlebell zuhause. Denkst du single KB würde den gleichen Effekt erzielen ?:)
Wie du in diesem Video siehst, kombiniere ich Bodyweight mit Kettlebells.
isn't this just normal bodybuilding at this point? you could do the main compound stuff with a barbell too
Just recently got a pair of 36, 40, and 44 KG kettlebells because your more recent videos motivated me to go heavy on some of my double bell workouts.
You’re really strong, sir.
I’ve mastered double 24s. On way to buy 28s and hopefully keep going up
Heavy bells incoming! Love it! 🔥
You tried Joe Rogans kettlebell workout
I enjoyed that one as well! But #twobellsoverhead is where it's at!
Your chest is looking bigger and with no chest direct work. Are you doing secret chest training 😂
