ya I giggled a little when I saw a pretty pink 5 & 10lb kettlebell in the vitamin section of Meijer the other day. Complete with beautiful packaging, padded handles and an instructional dvd for the amazing value of $49.99 it was the picture perfect fad. Too bad most won't realize the true evil these represent...

Concur with both of you. I thought this was funny. They will only be popular until people really learn to use them, find out they are hard and require skilled instruction. Then they will be as popular as concept 2s in an regular globogym.

Ya. I was remarking to Doug a couple weeks back that I saw a lady buying kettlebells at Dick's. Wait for Oprah to endorse them and shit will go haywire.

All I could think while watching this is, "I want to fix her swing SO bad". But hey - I'll take the free publicity.

Melissa,

Funny eh? It is hard to watch videos sometime because the eye is drawn to what is wrong. I do it when I teach classes. I see the video and think "How did I miss that" or geez, are they having a seizure?

There is no such thing as bad PR. What is scary are people going to Target and buying bells and swinging from a video.

Are you and your husband going to the Austin?
