How can I burn 500 calories?

None of them burn that many, unless you're already very fit.
Other way around. Fit people burn a lot more calories (for example) running 30 minutes than do unfit people.
A LOT more.
But only because they are capable of DOING more/harder/stronger/faster- it's not like they inherently burn more because they are fitter.

Kettlebells... Several studies have shown that Kettlebell workouts burn roughly 20.2 calories per minute!
That's pretty intense and I have seen amazing gains (fat loss) in a very short period of time using KB's.
so you're saying the 10 minutes of single leg RDL I did with my KB suddenly burned 200 calories- roughly the same as the two miles of running I did.
HA.
Okay- sure. whatever you say.
have fun getting fat over eating based on those ridiculous over inflated numbers.
A KB isn't special. It is a weight with a handle on it. It burns no more and no less than the equivalent exercise performed with a bar bell or db of similar weight.
Changing the same of it doesn't drastically change the nature of the exercise. Changing the nature of the exercise changes the nature.
I disagree...
What I said, was quoted from an ACE study and several articles that I've read as well as my experience of using KB's extensively for the past 3 years. I wasn't trying to be a dick and I am certainly not 'getting fat' by over eating and using any ridiculous numbers.
As I've said in a different post, when I start a HiiT KB routine, in a very short period of time, a few weeks, using the KB's 2-4 times a week. I see the fat melt off, my abs start to get more pronounced and the vascularity in my arms, chest, and shoulders become much more pronounced. So, yes I'm a fan of KB's and no one will be able to change my mind with a mildly passive aggressive post.
