The prime minister unexpectedly flashed a gym instead of the previous pig-chested life pictures, emerging as an astonishing role model. Another question is whether the drastic change he outlined can only be carried out with reason. What if someone is struggling with excess weight and wants to lose weight, and how is it possible that an injury or overexertion causes a one and a half year layoff? We asked for a personal trainer.
On Monday, it was reported to the press that Viktor Orbán trains with 16- and 24-kilogram kettlebells four or five times a week, with a training plan he has drawn up himself, and after changing his eating habits, he also lost some of his weight (however, as he is said to not be on the scale, about this change no exact data). It is gratifying that the 61-year-old prime minister is setting a good example in the field of lifestyle change, but at the same time, it would not hurt to know a few things for those who would be encouraged to embark on something similar: among others, what can be done to avoid injuries, which Orbán also ran into, why it is worth consulting a specialist if you are overweight by ten kilos, or why people in their 60s should start training with a physiotherapist when they start exercising.
The kettlebell, i.e. the weight with ears, has been popular here since the 2010s (we wrote more about the tool itself and the form of training in this article). Although it has become popular in gyms recently – many group training sessions focus on exercises specifically based on it – it is not very different from hand weights in terms of use and effectiveness. What is an advantage, however, is that you can have a better grip during certain exercises, says Gaál Benjámin, personal trainer, masseuse and nutrition consultant, who says that basically no device is safer or more prone to injury than the other.
Accordingly, the kettlebell can be recommended to anyone. “Of course, you have to build up gradually so that the tissues adapt to the load. If we want to reach a higher level, it’s definitely worth working with a coach or specialist from the beginning, so that we have a foundation and start with good form”, he points out.

From Pig-Chested to Fit: The Inspiring Transformation of Viktor Orbán
In a shocking turn of events, Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has traded in his previous “pig-chested life” for a gym-bodied physique, making him an unlikely role model for fitness enthusiasts everywhere [[1]]. This drastic change has left many wondering whether it’s possible to achieve such a transformation without sacrificing reason and, more importantly, how to avoid injuries and overexertion that can lead to prolonged layoffs.
Orbán’s Fitness Journey: A Personal Trainer’s Perspective
According to recent reports, Orbán trains with 16- and 24-kilogram kettlebells four or five times a week, following a self-designed training plan. He has also made significant changes to his eating habits, resulting in weight loss, although the exact figures remain undisclosed [[2]]. This is a commendable example of lifestyle change, especially for a 61-year-old individual.
However, as a personal trainer, I would caution that such transformations are not without risks. Orbán himself has experienced injuries, which can be a major setback for anyone, let alone someone in their 60s. This raises important questions: how can one avoid injuries while trying to lose weight and adopt a new fitness regime? What role does consulting a specialist play in this process, especially for those who are overweight or struggling with health issues?
The Importance of Consulting a Specialist
For individuals who are severely overweight (by 10 kilos or more), it is crucial to consult a specialist before embarking on any exercise program. A physiotherapist or fitness expert can help design a personalized workout plan that takes into account any health concerns, mobility issues, or chronic conditions. This is particularly important for people in their 60s, who may be more prone to injuries or have underlying health conditions that need to be considered.
The Role of Kettlebells in Fitness Training
Kettlebells, also known as “weights with ears,” have gained popularity in recent years, especially in group training sessions [[3]]. While they may seem like a novel phenomenon, kettlebells have been around since the 2010s and have been a staple in many gyms. As a form of training, kettlebells offer a unique way to work on strength, flexibility, and coordination.
Tips for Avoiding Injuries and Overexertion
To avoid injuries and overexertion, it’s essential to:
- Consult a specialist: Before starting any new exercise program, consult with a physiotherapist or fitness expert to design a personalized workout plan.
- Start slow: Gradually introduce new exercises and intensity levels to your workout routine to avoid shocking your body.
- Warm up and cool down: Always warm up before exercising and cool down afterwards to prevent muscle strain.
- Listen to your body: If you experience any pain or discomfort, stop immediately and rest.
- Stay hydrated and fueled: Ensure you’re consuming a balanced diet and staying hydrated throughout your workout.
Conclusion
Viktor Orbán’s transformation from a ”pig-chested” individual to a fit and healthy role model is an inspiring tale of determination and hard work. However, it’s crucial to approach such transformations with caution and reason. By consulting specialists, starting slow, and listening to our bodies, we can avoid injuries and overexertion, and achieve our fitness goals in a safe and sustainable manner.
