PLEASE NOTE: I give this product a rating of ZERO stars, however Amazon inexplicably will not allow this.
Are you looking at this DVD because you want a kettlebell workout? If you are, DO NOT BUY IT. The title of the DVD and the cover picture are 100% misleading. As a previous reviewer (whose review I wish I had seen) says, this is NOT at all a kettlebell exercise routine.
Okay, yes, the instructor dictates how to hold your kettlebell for each exercise ("by the base") - however, this is impractical even for the recommended women's beginning weight of 8kg. Kettlebells are too big to hold by the base, making exercises like "the halo" where you circle it around your head completely dangerous.
If you're looking for a dumbbell exercise with an instructor who occasionally says the word "kettlebell" then this is for you. If you are looking for a kettlebell DVD with actual instruction on how to hold and utilise a kettlebell from an instructor actually using a kettlebell you definitely need to look elsewhere.

Sorry but this is not a kettlebell workout, this is one woman swinging a dumbell around, doing some exercises that can't even be done with a kettlebell. Seriously misleading showing a kettlebell on the front of the DVD, maybe they borrowed it and had to give it back? I'd give this one a miss if you're looking for a proper workout. May I suggest Sarah Luries 'Kettlebells, The Iron Core Way' series (currently 3 different DVDs available) if you want proper kettlebell exercises and techniques.
If I could give this minus stars then I would, save your money guys.

This is marketed as a kettlebell fat burning workout. Im sorry but it doesnt utilise the kettlebell to its full potential. Firstly the women in the DVD uses a dumbell throughout the workout, hello why not call it a dumbell workout durr!!!! At pertinant points she mentions you can use your kettle bell instead but the kettlebell has so many more ues than a dumbell. I bought this DVD for my wife whilst buying myself a dedicated kettlebell DVD, my wife now uses my dvd which clearly utilises the kettlebell correctly, five mintues with a kettlebell swinging and you know you are working out. The 10 minute workout does not utilise any of the swings which the kettlebell is famous for and thus does not benefit from the total body workout which melt fat. My advise buy a kettlebell but even if your a female looking for a good workout avoid this DVD and purchase a specialist kettlebell book or DVD.

Puzzling
Why not just call it a dumbbell workout? Or actually pick up a kettlebell and do what you say on the tin - provide a KETTLEBELL workout? It's just laziness. Read more

Great video, total body workout, easy to follow, like the mix of moves and you only need one kettle bell or weight.

She doesn't use a kettle bell once!
This is disappointing. Not once does she use a kettle bell despite the title and front cover. Throughout the program she uses a dumbbell which does not require the same technique.

A good first step for beginners
After the other reviews, I wasn't sure about this but the low price persuaded me. I've been doing it for six weeks with a few Pilates DVDs and I've definitely noticed a difference... Read more
