'Best Combat Exercise - Double Dumbbell Swings by Nick Nilsson Swing, swing, swing your way to a more powerful kick, strong core and better abs! Sure, it sounds like a late night infomercial but in this case, it\'s actually going to get you an extremely intense core workout, while helping you develop better kicking power! On paper, it looks easy. In reality, you\'re going to be in for a shock! So why is this weighted skiing movement good for the abs and kicking power? Well, first think about where the tension (from the dueling momentum of the dumbbell\'s moving in opposite directions) is going through: the core. As one dumbbell is swinging down, the other is swinging up and it falls to the deep muscles of the core to not only stabilize the spine and body but to also provide muscular force to help keep those dumbbells swinging. This opposing torque on the abs results in a TREMENDOUS tightening of the deep muscles of the core, especially when both dumbbells are at the bottom of their swings and heading back up. All the momentum in those dumbbells is now going to go directly through your core. The torque from the hips, obliques and core are what is used for generating the most power in your kicks. The bonus: when you do the exercise, it will affect your ENTIRE body (I can promise you that!), giving you the benefits of interval training in addition to the direct effects on the abs.
