Hello has anyone been using kettlebells to help with their fitness... just bought a set and am giving them a go tonight. Anyone have any tips or ideas? Or any success stories with them?

    Jillian has a great DVD that works with kettlebells. They can be a lot of fun and a way to switch up your workout!

    I am interested too. I just bought one and a golds gym workout DVD. I think I am going to like kettle bells I found a youtube video with a 5 minute curcuit. You can repeat it as many times as you want. I used them for the first time yesterday and I feel it today!

    I found this website for some great tutorials and workout routines with Kettlebells. I can program my interval timer for it and do it while watching a show or listenig to some music ( I really get bored with the monotony of DVD's).

    You really feel the burn and the cardio in such a short time... LOVE them!

    thank you all will have a look into these :smile:
  • HI

    I've been working out with kettlebells for 8 months and I love them. Cardio and strength at the same time. I would make sure you have a good trainer or dvd to work with since you want to make sure you have the right technique. I would avoid Jillian Michaels kettlebell dvd since her technique is not great. just my 2 cents.

    corky

    Kettle bells are great! A KB work out is usually 20 min. and you burn a ton! You can check out these ladies http://www.ontheedgefitness.com/ , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocoqBMI2VAg. I love Amy's work out!
