What is a Kettlebell?

Kettlebell -- a kettlebell is a traditional Russian cast iron weight that looks like a cannonball with a handle.  The ultimate tool for extreme all-around fitness, its beginning can be traced as far back as 1704 Russia.

The off-centered nature of the weight makes training with it singularly difficult if you lack the proper form.  Unlike bodybuilding style workouts which focus all the stress on a single muscle group through isolation, kettlebell style training recruits as many different muscle groups as possible at the same time.  This trains the user to use his or her body synergistically, moving as a coordinated whole.  Thus, a kettlebell, when used properly, develops strength, flexibility, AND cardio all at the same time!  Wouldn't you rather be able to enjoy the benefits of strength training, stretching, and cardio training, along with hardcore mental training all at the same time???

• Training with kettlebells delivers extreme all-around fitness; no other single fitness tool does it better!  In the 20th century, Soviet science validated what Russian hard men had known for centuries: training with Kettlebells is one of the best tools for all-around physical development.
• Kettlebells are great for strength.
• Kettlebells improve coordination and agility.
• Kettlebell lifting is great for your heart.
• Kettlebell training improves overall body composition.

Even 10 minutes of kettlebells gives you more core strength and full-body cardio training than an hour in the gym!  It leaves you invigorated instead of feeling whipped.
