“The use of kettlebells has grown immensely over the past few years, as they can offer a great bang for your buck when it comes to time spent exercising and quality of results. “

In terms of calorie burning, kettlebell (snatch) workouts are equivalent to running a six-minute mile pace, or cross-country skiing uphill at a fast pace.

“Kettebells not only offer resistance training benefits, they also will ultimately help people burn calories, lose weight, and enhance their functional performance capabilities.”
