First LAUNCH Success

Wednesday afternoon kicked off the first Launch-Introduction to Kettlebells Workshop. We had five kettlebell virgins attend but each left with a good understanding of how the bell can help them relieve lower back pain, strengthen muscles with full body movements, and lose stubborn unwanted body fat through interval training.

When everyone walked in the door, nobody had any idea of what to expect. After my first Swing demo, I looked around to see 5 sets of "deers in the headlights." And I will admit, when I first saw someone doing this drill, I thought the guy would be in a full body cast within 5 repetitions. But I gave in and tried it, having great faith in my mentor, Pavel. With the addition of Z-Health joint mobility drills, I was feeling like a machine within no time, ....powerful, flexible and NO back pain. I was addicted! I vowed then and there that there would be no more traditional weightlifting, no more long distance running and no more wasting time with hour-long workouts that just left me too sore to walk the next day.

If you are still apprehensive about how the kettlebell swing can heal your back pain, take a look at this article written by a Physical Therapist.

If you are serious about losing fat, check this one out about Tracy Reifkind. She lost over 100 pounds using a healthy diet and kettlebell training.
