MG Kettlebells

I’ve been talking about Kettlebells and how great they are for some time, but I haven’t really done a dedicated post talking specifically about the benefits of Kettlebells for women….until now.

benefits of kettlebells for womenToday I’m going to treat you like you’ve never touched a Kettlebell before, so if that is not the case, please bear with me. I’m going to go through the key things you need to know:

Why They Are Unique From Barbells and Dumbbells
How To Utilize Them
And I will of course include links to exercises and routines you can perform using Kettlebells. Finally there will be some information to help you get kitted out with a Kettlebell, how to choose the best weight for you, and where to buy one (or two).

How Kettlebells Work?

Unlike other bells and weights, the Kettlebell’s center of mass extends beyond the hand. If you picture yourself holding a dumbbell or barbell, you can imagine that the center of mass will be around the hand in the middle. This is not the case with a Kettlebell, most of the weight will be on the “kettle” at the end of the handle.
