all I know is this: my family loves going to Dollywood and riding roller coasters. We went last spring and they hurt my back so much I vowed to not ride one again. It was after that I switched to kettlebells. We just got back from there: I rode every coaster with no problem! All I can attribute it to is the core strength from using kettlebells!!!

So….. I have 2big harps. One weighs 75lbs and the other 100. Getting them in the van has always been awkward even when I was bar squatting 300 and benching 250. I assumed when I had to move the 100lb one this weekend it would be a disaster scone I haven’t touched a barbell in months. When I lifted it, I felt amazing- so strain or hesitation at all! It’s the kettlebells! The whole body core movements have made me stronger than ever! Thanks, coach!!

All I know is this: I haven’t ridden my bike in months. Went for a ride thinking I’d be toast. I was powering up hills better than ever! It’s the kettlebells- swings and deep squats! The best!!!
