I LOVE LOVE LOVE kettlebell workouts!! In fact, I'm doing a kettlebell class at the gym this afternoon. A kettlebell is so versatile, you can do many, many exercises with it -- full body workouts. They come in a huge variety of weights so you can pick one that's most comfortable for you (I usually go 10-15 pounds for my workouts).
I'm not sure about the rules on posting links to other sites, so I don't want to post anything, but if you Google "kettlebell workouts" you'll get several great articles with different kettlebell exercises you can do.0 -
Bump, would like to know too, just bought one on the weekend!0

Thanks for responding, I actually ordered a training DVD incl 16k kettle bell, couple of months ago :blushing: still need to get started.... Is it as good as they tell you? for losing weight, toning and gaining muscle?
Or.... will I be wasting my time with it, and start some other work out?0 -
I do CrossFit and we use them. They are evil little devices. Seriously though they are great for developing hip explosion.0

I have been working with them for 2 years, I LOVE them. Its a great way to get in some weight training when you don't feel like hitting up the weight room. They have made me stronger and better at everything else, especially running..which I didn't expect. Plus, they are just fun. But make sure to get proper training on form, as they can also injure you badly if you aren't doing exercises with proper form0

You get a great bang for your buck. Pretty much all exercises target multiple muscle groups. 30 minute workout can get a lot done and it's easy to build a lot of variety into your routine.
I'm newer with them but LOVE them. I'm primarily a runner and have a few routines I use. One focuses on core/shoulders/back another focuses on legs/glutes/back/core.0 -
I love them too! Biggest bang for your buck on a calorie burn. I use Iron Core Kettle dvd's and they are terrific. Nothing gets your heart rate going like a kettle bell workout. Great definition in my arms from them. If I could only do one type of workout it would be kettle bells for sure0

I go every Wednesday and Saturday at my gym and I'm addicted. It's a challenging, effective workout that can be done in a short period of time. We usually do interval training with each movement being 30 seconds to 1 minute and immediately switch to the next one, no break. It's good cardio, and I hate cardio, so it works for me. just remember to keep your core as tight as you can so you don't hurt your back on some of the movements (like kettlebell swings). Good luck and enjoy!0

Alisha has really put together a nice program that building in difficulty, but not really in length since all the workouts are between 40 and 50 minutes, which is why I like it better than the Fitness Blender stuff (not they aren't great workouts though...)0 -
kettle bell swings with a 50 lb bell is pretty much an awesome total body blast. 100 swings (with however many breaks you need) is a great way to get your heart rate up0

Hi guys I have a question about the kettlebell workout. I plan on going to my first kettlebell class tonight at the gym, and it lasts an hour. Would I be getting a decent cardio workout? I would love to just do the class and skip the treadmill
Thanks!

I started a kettlebell class last week and so far I'm loving it! The class is 45 mins and definitely gets the heart rate up, I'm going to buy my own kettlebell to use at home too.0
