   I’ve been interested in Kettlebells for about a year, and was hesitant to try since I was 50 years old. I workout on a regular basis, so already do strength and cardio training, but for some reason Kettlebells looked too scary. I am so happy I got this video. When I first saw Lauren, my thought was “here we go, little miss young georgeous person is going to turn me right off, and I’m never going to watch this again”. After putting my jealousy aside, I continued to watch. Lauren was easy to understand, and then introduced a woman who is on the video with her, and is in her 50’s. Good move! If she can do it, I can for sure. Lauren is a great instructor, and really cares. I was pretty sore from the first workout, but loved every minute of it. Another bonus, I really liked the fact that you can do it with bare feet, which I prefer since I’m a yoga instructor. Give yourself time to get the moves down right. It does take some coordination. It’s a great way to work out the whole body in a very short amount of time. Don’t be afraid all you women over 50. Go get a kettlebell (I started with 10 lbs), and this video, and feel empowered!

   This is an excellent workout. I did the 12 minute workout several times before I tried the 40 minute workout. The next day I could hardly walk. I do Jillian Michaels and Jari Love workouts so I thought I was in pretty good shape, but I guess not! This video provides 2 workouts and an instructional section to show proper form. Highly recommended!

   I bought this DVD based on other reviews. The workout itself is good, but Lauren is extremely deadpan with sloppy moves. I enjoyed the warmup and training portion of this dvd more than the actual workout.

   This workout is definitely not for the faint of heart. First, people who are just starting to get in shape, this workout will be too hard for you. This is not to say that it can be achieved with alot of hard work though. First, you must have a relatively strong core and work out regularly. If you have never done kettlebell workouts before then I highly recommend that you watch the instruction segment on the video so that you can do the exercises correctly. The instructions are very good and I felt like if I had not watched the instruction portion then I could have easily fallen into a trap of doing the workouts incorrectly and possibly been injured.

   Lauren is not the type of instructor who is jumping up and down and talking nonstop, but honestly, I don’t see how a kettlebell workout is designed for that type of instruction. First, it’s even hard to talk while swinging a 15-20 pound weight over your head for a minute straight. Lauren is definitely no-nonsense and you can tell that she is not one of these Hollywood type fake instructors. She truly cares about being in shape and helping others reach their goals.

   The full workout is about 40 minutes long with one minute breaks in between. Other reviewers have complained about the one minute break being too long. If you are just starting this workout, then believe me, it will not be too long as each segment gets significantly harder. Even so, if you feel like the one minute is too long, then fast forward through it. I usually grab a drink of water and fast foward through the last 30 seconds or so to begin the next segment. As far as the workouts themselves, they are not too difficult (moves-wise) and with practice you will be doing them like a pro.

   This is definitely my number one kettle bell workout. I searched for a good kettlebell workout and this is by and far the best, instruction and workoutwise! It has increased my strength and and each segment gets my heart a pumpin’. Also, if you feel that it is getting too easy, increase the weight of the kettlebell and it will be just like starting over – you will be surprised at how much harder five pounds makes the workout. Lauren uses a 35 pound kettlebell – 20 pounds is about all I can handle, but wow, I can’t imagine how I would be rockin it if I could do a 35 pound bell. There is always something to work towards with this workout!

   This DVD is a terrific way to learn the basics of kettlebells and then how to work the various exercises into a credible workout.
