Kettle Bells

[Yates]

anyone use them?

physical trainer at work has been doing a few different work outs with them

im loving them, every few days use them to do a core work out, got some good gains from them too

[Dizzy]

Core workout? urgh hating that phrase. Kettle bells are brilliant bits of kit, Check out Dan john for tips and ideas. But doing kettlebell cleans, snatches, swings, goblet squats and getups is a pretty intense workout in itself.

im sorry for your hating dizzy, how would you word it?!

yeah really enjoying doing the snatches, swings and get ups, not sure if i have done a clean or goblet squat, done some form of squats with them but unsure on the name for half the stuff, i shall have a google of his stuff now

cheers

read a few workouts using kettlebells and the reuslts look pretty good but yet to purchase one. It's on the shopping list though

kettlebells are a very good exercise tool to use as all of the movments you do with them are big compound movements.

although when using them make sure you have good form as if you are doing swings and you can feel it in your lower back then you are doing it wrong.

Yeah there good bits of kits :) Same with a sledge hammer and tyre. Give a good workout :)

I've just got 1 x 20kg kettlebell so I do a lot of high rep workouts with it when I can't get to the gym..

I go to a gym in the city centre which is easier for me to go to before/during/after work... But it's too far to just nip to the gym if I'm not at work, so kettlebells are a perfect workout aid for me at home :y:

Some routines are knackering as well! Good for strength and cardio I imagine!!

I downloaded kb fat loss & kb muscle apps on my Iphone...there cheap and give a brief idea of technique and a few workouts/exercises :y:
