Kettlebell workout?

Paul Katami is a certified instructor. His dvd's will kick your butt, especially Build and Burn. I use 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 lb kettlebells during my workout. Paul explains form quite well.

I LOVE the kettlebell! I keep it super-simple though. The Russian Swing is the only thing I do with it. I pasted the link below that got me started with it. It's a great way to work out when I don't have time to hit the gym. CAUTION! Do NOT overdo it the first couple of times. You will be totally out of commission for a couple of days if you do. LOL!

Feel free to add me if you want to.

thanks for those last links! i've done weight training with a trainer in the past so I feel pretty comfortable that my form will generally be okay, but I will definitely watch it.

I was going to go buy one tomorrow, there is 8, 12 or 15 pounds...any thoughts on this?

Don't go too light b/c you'll outgrow it quick. I would say start with 20 pounds.

Also look up Skogg's workouts. He has 1 on youtube that is free. You can also buy his dvds. I've only done the Youtube workout, but I would say his videos are definitely worth purchasing.

ok, so maybe don't try Jillian. lol

RKC certified, free, video kettlebell workouts, and participants are not musclemen. Love it.

Avoid Jillian. The KB community had a heyday with that video. Not just her form but that she has no KB training and she made up some pretty dangerous moves.
