The magazines article quotes Dragon Doors certified Russian Kettlebell instructor, Frank Pearce, http://www.dragondoor.com/instructors.html
who explains why training with kettlebells is better than working out with regular weights because they make you fit in every aspect: Kettlebells deliver a stronger, leaner body without extra, useless bulk...kettlebell lifts will strengthen your joints and ligaments and high rep kettlebell swings will burn fat so you dont have to spend hours on a treadmill."

around the country, dedicated to the camaraderie of high-yield, kettlebell fitness workouts. And most recently kettlebell lifting has become competitive, with the advent of national kettlebell lifting competitions.
I am not surprised to see how kettlebells have taken off in this country, " comments leading fitness publisher John Du Cane. Kettlebells are remarkably effective at burning off fat and strengthening the whole body in only a few minutes a day. Plus, you can work out with kettlebells at home or at your office and get a complete cardio-strengthening program without having to waste hours at the gym. Our busy culture loves that."
