I've been doing KB workouts for over 2 years now and my joints are fine. I would imagine the risk is similar to anything else, as long as your form is good, and you're not going too heavy for you individual abilities, you should be fine.

Friday's workout was another good one! Hot day in London, very hot, so I was kind of drained. I was planning on doing Military Presses with this workout, but the rack was taken. I didn't have the energy to do KB Front Squats, so I did pushups... Workout below: Cluster 10 Swings (28Kilo KB) 5 Push-ups 15 Swings (28Kilo KB)…

This is a blast!!! Hard work, but a lot of fun...

Good workout tonight. All I did was the KB swings tonight. Last 2 clusters, my forearms were burning and it was tough to grip the KB. Here is my workout: Cluster 10 Swings (28Kilo KB) 3 Chins 15 Swings (28Kilo KB) 2 Chins 25 Swings (28Kilo KB) 1 Chin 50 Swings (24Kilo KB) Repeat 4 more clusters. Each set of the cluster is…

Friday's workout was a brutal one! For some reason I was exhausted and the entire 500 Swings felt tough...

My 500 Kettlebell Swing routine! Every time I'm about to start, I have to ask myself; do I really want to do this, and why??? :o Yet once I get started, I love it and the results!

Several studies have shown during a kettlebell workout, participants burned an average of 13.6 calories per minute aerobically, plus another 6.6 calories per minute anaerobically. “So they were burning at least 20.2 calories per minute, which is off the charts. That’s equivalent to running a 6-minute mile pace. The only…

Last night had a great KB workout.

Ok, back at recording now as I've been traveling the past few days. My workout on Wednesday was Fantastic! I was in Prague for work and found a great gym in Old Praha that had kettlebells... They had a 32Kg bell and I went for it! Did all 500 swings with the 32Kg KB and was soaked in sweat. I know I burned some serious…

Ok, here I am again with a couple of updates. I have been doing the swings, just haven't had the time to post updates as I've been moving to a new house in West London... I have decided to push myself a little bit and am doing more with the 28Kilo KB. My new goal is to do all 500 swings each night with the 28Kilo…

Last night was workout #2. My time was a little slower as my hands are a bit chewed up from the recent KB Snatch work that I've been practicing and I used the 28Kilo KB for my first 3 sets of each cluster. Here is my workout: Cluster 10 Swings (28Kilo KB) 3 Chins 15 Swings (28Kilo KB) 2 Chins 25 Swings (28Kilo KB) 1 Chin…

Kettlebells are Awesome! I've almost, not quite, but almost completely moved to all KB workouts...

Start with swings, perfect the swing...

Here is what I do: 4 minute warmup, walking briskly. At minute 4, I take the treadmill to a sprint, between 13-15km/h. I sprint for 1 minute, then back to a brisk walk. 1 Minute on, 1 Minute off for 17 minutes. At minute 21, I do a 4 minute cool down. 25 minutes total... The key is to make the 'on' sprints as hard as…

One of the best posts I've read on MFP... What he said!!!

Kettlebell sprints: grab two KBs, space them approximately 30-35 paces apart. Set your stop watch for 20 minutes, do 10 KB swings and spring to the other KB. Do 10 more swings and spring back. Keep doing that for the 20 minutes. You'll be gassed!
