Are you getting tired of those ‘muffin tops’ you see hanging over your belt line?  If so, you should consider Kettlebell Training, a great way to effectively reclaim your waistline! Here are listed some of the principles of Kettlebell Training and how they can help you to shed this unwanted body fat.

Kettlebell Training Builds Muscle

You’re probably wondering what building muscle has to do with burning fat. As you’ve probably realized by now, the older you get, the more difficult it is to keep weight off. This is because as we age, our lean muscle mass begins to lessen. This lean muscle mass plays a major role in the body’s metabolism and energy level.

Muscle is an active tissue which causes your metabolism and energy level to be higher, allowing your body to burn fat easier. As your body begins to lose muscle tissue, your metabolism decreases and so does your energy level.

As this takes place your body’s ability to burn fat is slowed down. This is precisely the reason why people gain fat as they grow older- they are losing lean muscle tissue. Kettlebell Training is a method which can be used to simultaneously build lean muscle tissue and also work out the cardiovascular system. This combination is very effective in building a physique which naturally burns body fat, and also in keeping your energy level and metabolism up.

Kettlebell Training and The Spot Reduction Myth

So will you have to use Kettlebell Training to do 600 heavy-duty ab exercises a day? This is what a lot of workout programs will tell you is needed to lose body fat from around your abdomen. However, this is based on a common misconception about how the body burns fat.

As the body begins to break down fat, it does not begin with the fat in the areas where you have been training your muscles. On the contrary, belly fat is one of the last types of fat to be removed from the body. This is because the midsection is one of the most convenient and safe areas for the body to store fat.

Because of this, even if you do hundreds of sit-ups a day you are only conditioning the muscles of the abdomen. In order to effectively burn the fat from those areas, it’s important to have a good cardiovascular routine and to work on building lean muscle on all areas of the body. As you do this, you will condition your body in such a way that it will naturally burn away fat.

Again, this is precisely how Kettlebell Training can help you to build a physique which will burn fat and keep it off. Once the fat around your midsection is the only fat left to burn, your body will be forced to get rid of it.

Getting Started with Kettlebell Training

Getting started with Kettlebell Training is much simpler than signing up for a gym membership or learning some complicated at-home workout. Kettlebells are so compact and the exercises are so thorough and versatile that you can do them from practically anywhere. Once you have your first Kettlebell Training program and set of Kettlebells, you can get started right away turning your body into a fat burning machine.

“The Shortcut to Extreme Strength and Elite Conditioning Guaranteed.”

But, can it hold up to the test?

Personally, I own this DVD and love it — and it’s PERFECT for those that are just starting using kettlebells.

Here is What You Can Expect

This is a 46 minute DVD where Pavel lays out a completely idiot proof system for mastering the art of kettlebell training.

“Enter the Kettlebell” is the product of an intensive five years of research and development based on the knowledge and expertise of a true master.

Here are some of the objectives of “Enter the Kettlebell”:

• Build all purpose strength development-you’ll learn to build the strength and the ability to meet the demands of any situation.
• Maximize Stamina-if you are an athlete or a fighter, your skills are only as good as they are durable.  Pavel gives you the edge to blow away all your competitors.
• Forging a Rock Solid Physique-this is not the type of strength training that only does you good when you are in the gym. Pavel knows EXACTLY what it takes to build the strength that you can use when it REALLY counts!

Your New Coach Pavel Tstatsouline

This guy has dedicated most of his career to working with the elite forces of the military, both the Soviet Union and the United States. These are the workout routines and exercises he uses to turn these guys into lean mean fighting machines. I’m not sure how much more qualification you could ask for!

Not to mention that there are a TON of other workout DVDs which you can get for the same price (or more) that were created by people with nowhere near the qualifications that this guy has.

He really covers all the bases when it comes to doing the exercises the RIGHT way – for safety (very important) and for maximum results.

Pavel moves you step by step through a process which can take you from a complete beginner in kettlebell training to a ‘Man Among Men.’

There are three stages to this process and the third is precisely what he has used to help people obtain Special Forces level conditioning for strength speed and stamina. Pretty cool.

This is the most thorough workout approach you could hope for. At the same time, once you get the exercises down, you can compress your training into one routine which covers the entire body. Not a bad deal for less than 30 dollars.

Who is “Enter the Kettlebell” For?

For starters, if you’ve never picked up a kettlebell before or if you’d like to expand your range of kettlebell exercises, this is definitely the DVD to own.

As far as kettlebell training, that depends on how seriously you take your physical conditioning. If you are a professional fighter or athlete (especially if you play a contact sport) then using this routine could very well make you the envy of your competition.

This is for firefighters or law enforcement, and of course military, you are working with someone who the military elite pretty much trust with their survival. Think about it, if they can’t out match their opponent it could cost them their life.

For body builders or strength trainers, this can help you to iron out the weak spots in your lifts or in your physique and possibly save you a lot of extra training time that you may have spent working with conventional weights.

Or, if you just want to have a great physique and be in the top physical shape of your life, this is the workout you have been waiting for.

How Much Does it Cost?

To begin with, the workout DVD is well worth the price you are going to pay for it – it’s only $29.95 (and he could easily charge double!)

Pavel Tstatsouline promises a one hundred percent money back guarantee and, because he has a reputation which speaks for itself, you could pretty much skip the research part and just buy this product.

With Pavel at your side, you can’t go wrong. Great Product.

I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to build a rock hard physique and with the strength of a gorilla.

What Can This Product Do For Me?

“The Russian Kettlebell Challenge” starts out by covering the proper way to execute the kettlebell exercises for maximum results and proper safety. Then it quickly jumps into instructions regarding strength building exercises, muscle toning, and even includes a very good cardio workout.

So what Pavel actually does is creates a well rounded approach which covers a few different types of training…

For Power lifters

Ever hit that spot in your dead lift or your bench press where you just get stuck?

Kettlebells is the ultimate solution to break that plateau.

Working with kettlebells is the most efficient way to zero in one those difficult ranges of motion which weaken your heavier lifts.

Believe me, even the most experienced power-lifters are likely to FEEL those neglected spots the day after!

What you’ll find is that those ‘wrinkles’ within your power lifts will get ironed out as a result of working with kettlebells.

The difference for some people could mean as much as 20-40lbs (or more) added to your bench press or dead lift.

For Athletes, Professional Fighters and Law Enforcement

For those of you who are athletes or fighters or who are in law enforcement, you have to make sure that the results are going to be useful to you in a real life setting. You want something that incorporates agility and strength training into one neat little package.

The freedom of motion involved in kettlebell training really gives the body a chance to develop more naturally. Unlike the use of traditional weights, you build strength that has the versatility to give you an edge in real life situations.

Also, the cardio workout has a great combination of strength and stamina training that can maximize your workout time.

Not to mention that the trainer has an entire career full of experience in training the military and US elite forces. If you are a martial artist, a wrestler or are in any kind of contact sport like football or rugby, Pavel is the guy to listen to.

For Ladies

Ok for the ladies who might be reading this and thinking that you don’t really care about bench pressing Buicks or lifting your man up over your head (unless that’s your thing). The Russian Kettlebell Challenge is a great way to also build lean muscle tone for a sexy bikini body.

The Russian Kettlebell Challenge does is provide you with a versatile knowledge of strength training that can be applied for light muscle gain. This will turn your body into a fat burning machine!

Not a bad deal right? Not to mention that lean muscle tone looks really sexy on a woman. Just make sure that you purchase the smaller sets of kettlebells for more repetitions (or you may end up with arms like Hulk Hogan (not sexy)).

… and, ladies, just so you know, kettlebells are quickly becoming the top secret of elite supermodels around the globe!

So Who is Pavel Tsatsouline?

Pavel is actually a former Soviet Special Forces instructor and has moved on to working with the elite units of the United States Military and law enforcement. This ought to assure you of his extraordinary abilities.

These people who he is working with trust him to deliver a training program with rapid and powerful results. You see,  for you and I, kettlebell training might be just about looking nice in our bathing suit.  However, for many of Pavel’s students, they’re training  to be in better condition than their enemies or they risk being taken out by them.

Needless to say, if you take his advice and do these exercises the right way, the benefits are second to none and you will be in a class of fitness above everyone else.

What Could Have Been Better

Being an overachiever, I personally feel that something which had a step by step routine to follow would be more ideal (personal preference).

That being said, the Russian Kettlebell Challenge is probably more than enough for the average person (and will definitely give even an experienced athlete a run for their money!)

Pavel also has ‘Enter the Kettlbell’ and ‘The Extreme Kettlebell Cardio Workout’ which would make for perfect additions to the ‘set.’

My favorite thing about this program is that it provides you will a full body workout for toning, building strength and for getting the heart and lungs in shape.

Overall, you can’t go wrong with the Russian Kettlebell Challenge.  It truly is a great product!

How Much is the Kettlebell DVD?

The price is $39.99 which in my opinion is a no brainer given the high level of instruction and training.

Not to mention the 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied.

My advice.  Give it a shot.  You won’t be disappointed.
