Hi, Checking to see if any members have tried working out with kettlebells and what you think. Thanks, Laura USMS Staff writer

  • There used to be a pair of 35lb ones at the gym for about two years, but the owner of the pair took them back to his home gym (it's a hospital gym, and the owner of the kettlebells works at the hospital). While they were there I liked using them, and did the following 3 exercises: Standing one-arm shoulder press (with weight above the handle) Kettlebell Swings Kettlebell Windmill Didn't do a whole routine with them (there are many more exercises in addition to the ones I listed), but it was fun to lift/do something different. Also, I don't know how much, if any, they helped with my swimming, but again, it was something different to do. A few years ago I entertained the idea of getting a pair to keep at home, but I guess I lost interest…plus, it would mean I'd have to grow my handlebar mustache out again. :D
