Kettlebells

Most of you have probably never seen the exercise equipment above, but let me say they kick your butt! Last spring my boss decided to kickstart a fitness challenge among the employees and paid for group personal trainer for all of us. Needless to say, I did not win the challenge, but I become addicted to one exercise in general, kettlebells. Developed by Russians, this training equipment can do it all, cardio, toning, strength training, all of it. The gentleman who teaches this for the trainer offered to continue coaching us at no cost simply for our benefit and the promotion of the activity. It is awesome. Me and a couple of the girls from work still go twice a week to this guy and it makes you feel great. Plus you feel like an olympian! There are other pros too. It takes up less than 1 sq. ft. of my house, it is portable and I so do it anywhere I want, and the dent it leaves in the grass, is bigger than the dent it left in my bank account. Never in my life did I think I would enjoy throwing (literally) around a 26lb ball of solid iron around for fun. But, I am addicted! You can see it on you tube if your interested.
