Kettlebells 101: How to Get Started + Beginner Kettlebell Workout 

Lester Alvarez I’m happy to help, Lester! Thanks for the feedback.

Abso-freaking-lutely!

Yea, and opened up with the very first thing required...what size KB! I've already bought mine 35 pounds but didn't know at the time and just guessed...she just confirmed it, and I wish I would have seen her video first. Haha, nice work!

Anthony Joseph thanks Anthony! I’m glad you’ve decided to use kettlebells. Have fun!!

Sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost my password. I would love any tips you can give me.

@Casey Zayne Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@Casey Zayne It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thanks so much, you really help me out !

@King Benedict No problem =)

That’s great to hear! Thanks for watching :)

I agree 💯

Here is your AMEN sister! Needs to be a woman to get rid of the machismo, give good advice and set reasonable expectations for beginners. It's admirable because once you get really good at something it's hard to remember how things were when you started.

Steven Franke awesome! Glad to hear it :)

You're welcome, Allen! I appreciate the kind words. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.

Aww thank you, Kimberly! I’m happy to help.

Very nice total basic work out with kattlebells. You forgot to mention the Russian swings.

@@TheAlfarasjohn I didn’t forget to mention the swing; it’s a great exercise, but not for beginners in my opinion. It’s best to master the deadlift and squat first, and build up strength in your legs and back. I would not start any of my students with a swing right off the bat. Once you’re ready to swing, check out this tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t2K49ju5mTk.html

Aww yay! Thank you for being here to work out with me. Happy Mother’s Day weekend!!

You’re so welcome, Cherie! Have fun and let me know if you have any further questions. :)

You're welcome! :)

I am! :) Thanks

@@kbfitbritt your welcome! :) I box, and need to strengthen my core, especially my lower back. I'm going to give kettlebells a shot.

That's great to hear! I'm glad the video helped you and the lifting is helping you feel good. :)

Awww, really??? I’m cracking a huge smile right now!! :) thank you.

I agree! I've spent the weekend looking at RU-vid KB videos & I am stuck with her videos. So explanatory but in a very simple way!

Lille4008 will do, glad you like it!

Thank you, she talks way too much

@@PolskiKabaret you're both stupid..

You're welcome, Mary! Enjoy!

@@kbfitbritt If I feel tension and soreness in my lower back, does that mean I’m doing the deadlift wrong? I’m short so this stance is kind of odd for me. I usually do sumo squats and sumo deadlifts for my height. I’m 5’2

@@marym6613 Not necessarily a bad thing, if it's just muscle soreness. That being said, you want to feel the deadlift mostly in your hamstrings and glutes. Try sitting back into your hips and bending the knees a bit more so you can utilize the legs more than the back.

Martin Zuidhof hoi Martin! Dank je wel! Blij dat je de video leuk vind :)

Happy to help, Tommy! Enjoy the bells.

You're welcome! Thanks for watching, Kim!

manjitrupbikram glad you like the workout! This is a much better place for most people to start than 10 min sets, that’s for sure!!

You’re welcome Felix! Thanks for watching.

Oh dear!! Sorry to hear you may have disturbed your roommate and neighbors... maybe you got it out of the way and now everything will be easy-peasy! 😆 GOOD LUCK!!!

@@kbfitbritt To be honest, I kinda got anxious about dropping it again and flaked. Maybe I should practice the movement on the weekend when I can do it during daytime and don't need to worry about waking the neighbours 😅

@@Funkho Or simply skip the exercises where you're worried about dropping it. Do you have a park nearby you can practice at?

@@kbfitbritt There is a park nearby, but I wouldn't feels safe hanging out there for prolonged amounts of time. I'm skipping the exercise for now, until I feel more confident :)

@@Funkho Only you know what is best for you! Good luck on your journey. :)

joanna ryan thank you, Joanna! So glad to hear you’ve gotten so many marvelous benefits from Kettlebell training :)

Thank you!

I thought the same, actually I learned with a broomstick to keep the back 100% flat and that felt first like I would round it. but that was the key. before that I had problems with backpain and never could progress in the training. In the discription it says that the instructor is some kind of master in kettlebell liftig. I may not able to judge it, but I thought her back was too hyperextended.

As a PT, don’t you think we concentrate too much on “correct form”? Shouldn’t we do things more in accordance with our anatomy and natural instinct? I mean, apes don’t care about the correct form do they, but they seem to be pretty athletic…

@@viktoriakireeva5860 Apes don't goto the gym and do the same repetitive motion, increasing the load for "gains"....humans do. Humans will use wonky mechanics simply to "deadlift" a weight that's probably not appropriate for them, leading to poor compensation patterns. Constantly being extended leads to at least 50% of low back pain cases seen in clinic. Not all hyperextend humans have low back pain....but a plurality (if not a majority) of low back pain sufferers are hyperextended. Many of them are doing things like deadlifts (poorly) because some "trainer" with no real education in human physiology or exercise science showed them how to do so.... incorrectly. More and more evidence is showing that we should actually be more flexed(as apes are)....but technology, office work, certain sports and a poorly educated fitness industry has people in hip and spinal extension.

@@TheHeyDood could you please point to the specific time in the video where you think her back is overextended?
