Well, I am back....Been busy...and I have been playing with Kettlebells. Some of you know what they are and share my love of them,(I can see why)...Some of you want to know what they are (and say "Kettle Balls" rather than Kettlebells) (I smile when you do)and some of you are not fans at all (I won't hold it against you). Regardless of your love - hate relationship, I have decided to follow my heart with much much much more training than I have time for.
Now, I should mention, I am working more than I have in 4 or 5 years (loving it), I am training for a half marathon(will try to love it), want to be with Doug when he is doing his events (every other weekend or so), working out almost everyday (sometimes twice) to lose the last of the lb's hanging around (kettlebells help), and then there is this computer time....At any rate, Now, I will be taking 3 to 5 classes a week in two different places for the next several months. Going to have to tweak my schedule a little in the mornings for classes in Sumner, and drive to Seattle 3 times a week in the evenings and on Saturdays. Along the way, I will be doing homework and study til my eyes pop so that I can earn a certificate in Kettlebell training. Did I mention that I have to do a pull up? Well not a pull up exactly, but I have to hold myself in a pull up position for 15 seconds...Hopekettlebell swinging will help with this and I have to practice and practice some more....so when my girl friends are working out with me and ask me why I want to do more pull ups (couse we did them last time) they, and you will know why.
So Kettlebells are cool and they are light to heavy balls with handles( some even come in pretty colors)...You can do a whole body workout with them and they are great way to lose weight, gain muscle, Get a cardio workout, build core, and stability, and function are key components to kettlebells. I use them a lot and now I am going to learn how to do more and lift more.
Ever want to play with my bells, just let me know, I am always happy to show you what I know.
I wanna play with your bells!! =)
