After months of training with Ken’s kettlebells, I finally broke down and bought one of my own.  These things are great workout tools.  If you’re looking to get back into shape, I highly recommend them.  Make sure you find a certified instructor in your area and take a few lessons so that you don’t hurt yourself.  Unless you’re familiar with Olympic-style lifting, you’re bound to get injured by using improper form.  Done properly, though, the health benefits are amazing. 

I can’t totally credit the kettlebells for this, but I dropped quite a few pounds and blood pressure points after I started training.  Anyway, if you’re looking for something different, this is it.
