Why Kettlebells might be the missing ingredient to your workout

Today’s episode is for everyone who has walked past those kettlebells and thought “those look cool but I have no idea what to do with them and I’m afraid I’ll hurt my back.” 

My guest today is Coach Gretchen Meyers. You met her at the end of 2020 as we discussed our perspective and hope as trainers as we enter the new year. (And if you didn’t hear that conversation this is your invitation because she brings some really great stuff to it) Today we get really technical and dig into kettlebells, which I share I’m not entirely educated or comfortable with.

We discuss

• Why Kettlebells are so intimidating
• The different types of Kettlebells and what they are used for
• How a Kettlebell can help back pain
• How to do a Kettlebell swing properly
• Where to place the Kettlebell when you swing down and how high to take it
• Who should not be using Kettlebells
• What a ballistic move is
• How to reframe your mindset if you fear or dislike Kettlebell swings
• What size and type of Kettlebell Gretchen recommends starting with
• How Gretchen’s Kettlebell Blueprint program is structured and can benefit you
