What in the heck is a Kettlebell you ask?
A “kettlebell” is a 100 year old traditional Russian form of weight training. This functional type of training is now being recognized by the Military & Law enforcement, Professional sports teams & Everyday people who want to get healthy and fit.
Kettlebell training utlilizes significant core strength, which can only be developed through kettlebell training. Today, the grand majority of people attempting what they think is functional training have core deficiencies that pre-dispose them to injury when exercising or even when they perform simple everyday tasks. If you do not know how to assess/restore the function of your core, kettlebell training at Liberty Kettlebells can help!
Kettlebell training is excellent for anyone because it is an extremely biomotor-rich form of exercise that improves everyday skills for "real people" and also helps althetes excel in their sports training. With guided use by one of our certified instructors, kettlebells are for people of all ages & levels of ability. They are also ideal for anyone with limited training time because you can get a fantastic workout with them in as little as 15-30 minutes.
