I've been wanting add some weights (specifically kettle bell) once or twice a week to my routine. Any bees do kettle bell workouts? Do you do them with a trainer? Alone at the gym? Have some at home &just follow a workout? Any tips or recs?

I did a group class a few times right before I got PG and really liked it. I am a wimp but by the end of the class that 5 lb bell felt like 50 lbs! Good workout!

@kentuckygirl: haha my arm strength is pretty low. I'm sure it will be intense but I'm looking to changing my routine & stepping up my workouts a bit.

We use kettle bells at crossfit all the time! You can swing them, snatch them, squat holding one, hold it overhead while you walk, etc.

We use them at Crossfit and also at a regular gym. I'll do tabata kettlebells swings, but there's lots of great options

The blog pumpsandiron.com has some great kettlebell workouts. I've been doing them for about 6 weeks now and love it!

I do the Real Simple workout or Amy Bento's DVD- both great. Be careful with Jillian Michaels- most of her stuff is great, but her form on the kettlebell is off and can lead to injuries.
