5 REASONS TO START KETTLEBELL TRAINING TODAY Kettlebells are simple, inexpensive and will last forever. 1They cannot break, there is no maintenance costs and

when you’ve done with the training you can use them as the door stopper :)

One kettlebell can substitute the whole gym and this 2short manual will show you how to train with them. You will also learn how to plan your own kettlebell workouts quick and easy.

Kettlebells give you a freedom, you can workout 3anywhere and you don t even need a expensive gym membership.

'

One of my clients, Chris, once he has learnt basics, has set up his kettlebell gym in the kitchen. Other client, Gavin a truck driver, takes kettlebells on the road trips, so he can train when waiting for the load. A typical kettlebell workout takes less than 20 4minutes,which is perfect if you are busy with your life.

5 It s a great full body workout!

HOW TO USE THE MANUAL WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE WORKING OUT SIMPLY CHOOSE EXERCISE FROM EACH CATEGORY, ADD TIME FORMAT & YOU ARE READY TO GO! Notes. Kettlebell training is not a rocket science. I didn't invented anything, all those exercises have been described and performed hundreds times before. I didn't mention kettlebell history and who was the first to use it. This really doesn't matter. It's a basic manual, with a basic exercises. I think those exercises are easiest to learn and offer the biggest bang for your money. Let's train!
