Russian Kettlebells UK Kettlebells, Kettlebell Training, Kettlebell Courses and Kettlebell Classes FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Is kettlebell training the only way to train? A: No one system is the only way to train. Do not kid yourself as there are many types of ways to train. Q: Is kettlebell training effective for fat loss, strength training, and packing on muscle? Yes and it is a fantastic way to train and get the heart and lungs working. In order to keep kettlebell training fun, you have to keep it interesting and kettlebells are a great! You can benefit from kettlebells on their own or even combined with other things like boxing and bodyweight programs. There is something for everyone. Q: Kettlebell exercises look dangerous, will I drop them on my foot? A: Only when done with poor form and lack of concentration. However, any exercise is dangerous when its not done correctly. People die every year from running on treadmills. Thus far, there have been no deaths related to KB training yet. But the bottom line is everyone needs personal instruction to maximise the benefits of kettlebell training safely as 100% attention is required and you can't just learn it from a dvd or a book. Kettlebell DVD's while useful are not a replacement for in person instruction. Q: Is kettlebell training effective for fat loss? A: Yes definately! From just training with a kettlebell for 10 mins a day you will will burn around 500 calories. However if you decide to sit and watch tv and eat crap and do no exercise you will definately put on weight. Fat loss is 70% diet and 30% training. Unless you are a professional athlete where training is your job. Do not kid yourself into thinking that you train like a professional athlete unless you are one. Kettlebell training can be a very effective way to speed up your metabolism. However, if anyone that tells you that you can lose fat with kettlebell training and a crappy diet and still look great then maybe they need personal training too.

They are both forms of weight training. Thus, just as barbells and dumbbells are effective for building muscle, kettlebells are very effective as well. That said, nothing takes the place of progressive weight training with barbells. Barbell squats, barbell deadlifts, Barbell Military Presses, and weighted dips are among the kings of muscle building. If your main goal is to build muscle then you are better off with barbells. If your have been training with barbells and dumbbells for a while and want a new stimulus then kettlebell training is a great fit. Also, kettlebells are great for building the shoulders, hamstrings, and arms. Kettlebells are not the best fit for quad development and of course calf development. A combination approach utilising kettlebells and barbells is a very effective way to go. Q: I want to get stronger without getting bigger. Is kettlebell training for me?? A: Yes, this is one of the most popular benefits of kettlebell training. When training with the kettlebell it is like training the whole body as a system at the same time without concentrating on one particular muscle group at one time. This is known as peripheral heart training where you work the body as one unit without putting on bulk. Women for example love kettlebell training as it helps them tone up and lose fat without getting big and bulky. Truth be told, building muscle is not easy for women as they have less muscle building chemicals in thier bodies like men so they will find it difficult to get big and bulky anyway-so that should be the least of your worries. Q: Do women use kettlebells?? A: Yes they absoluetly love it! ;-)I I work with women all of the time at my workshops and classes and they love kettlebell training. Especially exercises such as swings, squats, renegade lunges, and The Windmill. Women tend to believe the illusion that they will turn into "Arnold" overnight and that they will have Popeye arms and shoulders. Fortunately, top kettlebell instructors such as Lisa Shaffer of www.nofearfitness.com and Lauren Brooks of www.socaltrainer.com and Svetlana Writtle of www.powerandbeauty.co.uk are perfect examples of the benefits of kettlebell training for women. Check out their sites today and get over that fear once and for all that you will not turn into some bulky rugby player or Incredible Hulk overnight with kettlebell training.
