They say that the first impression for the longest time. In the case of kettlebells, my first impression was way. I was literally to kettlebells about three years ago introduced by my colleague Josh Henkin during one of our training weekends. My wife came attached to her and almost immediately after the search them on eBay. To say I was a little hesitant kettlebells would be an understatement. In fact, when I learned that she had bought a pair of 12 kg kettlebells, I think my comment was something like: "You can do exactly the same with dumbbells too."

My how things have changed. I now have at least 10 kettlebells in my area and will probably have a few more in the relatively near future. I also take an additional six or so in my car for my outdoor fitness camps. I am sure some of you think that I have gone and drunk the proverbial Kool-Aid.

No, what actually happened, I realized two things.

1. All of the best coaches that I have known her for many different types of customers. Whether they coaching for sports development, fat-loss, powerlifting or hypertrophy, you will probably the kettlebells is used during some part of a training day. There must be some merit to the implementation, if all these guys use them with their customers.

2. As a trainer and a businessman, I can not afford to ignore a convert so versatile too. I have a limited amount of surface area and therefore a limited budget to invest it important for me in terms of technology that I can get out a lot in a small distance.

In other words, kettlebells simply too big a deal and ignore too good a tool. Whether you are a fitness competitor or a powerlifter, there are many reasons why you should at least consider kettlebells. These are my top 10:

1. Pound for pound they are the best piece of home equipment you can buy. Not nearly as expensive, and they take a lot less space than the damn err "hangers" … Treadmill, many of you have. For a modest investment, you can get a Kettlebell, an instructional DVD, and probably one or two sessions with a local Teachers – a much more effective start in a gym program is necessary as "some assembly."

2. Price Point – They say duplication is the highest form of flattery. Well, that in the case of kettlebells to be true. It used to be that you only get kettlebells at Dragon Door. Now there is nothing less than a half dozen others Dealers out there. Are they all the same quality bell? No, but if you investigate a bit and ask around, you can find out who is selling Bell is the best at the best price.

3. Instant feedback loop – One of the keys to coaching is that the client / athlete the difference between appropriate and inappropriate Technology. The Kettlebell, drills, such as cleans and snatches provide our clients / athletes with instant feedback. The way the Kettlebell occur to them not so subtle Reminder of their improper technique, and after a workout or two, they will have no problems with the technology in general.

4. Teach Olympic Lifts Fast – The Curse of Teaching Olympic lifting has always been that the lifts are difficult to convey. Kettlebells make an excellent segue. They can teach not just variations of the Olympic facilities, but things can be taken another step further. One of the first things you learn, even in the basic kettlebell drills, is hip drive.

5. Ideal for Fat-loss – I do not know if it's a better, more easily learned drill than a two-Hand Kettlebell Swing. There are so many different complexes available, the possibilities for kicking ass-fat-loss work are endless. If you could do only a drill, that it is because what you need for fat-loss is a burden for as long as possible to move. That's exactly what kettlebells can do, and you can add some speed.
