Sometimes kettle weights training is seen as a brutish and macho method of training and in some gyms it is but that should not deter women from giving it a try.  One of the best things about training with kettle weights is that you can do it in your own home and you don’t need a bunch of expensive weights equipment.  All you need is 2 kettle weights for an entire workout and you could even get away with only having a single kettle bell.  They are inexpensive and take up almost no room.  I’d better be careful, this post is starting to sound like the latest ab training device that you might find Chuck Norris endorsing at 3am on the shopping channel.

The physical benefits of training with kettle weights is the same for men and women.  One of the unique qualities is that you get excellent core strength improvement.  This is because lifting the kettle weights requires many of the smaller stabilizing muscles to work hard to provide balance and stability.  This is because lifting a kettle bell is a little bit more awkward than a regular evenly balanced dumbbell.  This is another reason some people won’t try them but in actual fact, it is one of its most important features.

Obviously there are physical differences between men and women so the weight of the kettle bell that women use will be lighter especially if just starting out.  Then again, this may not be the case if you already have a great base from lifting regular weights in the gym.

When starting out, the most important thing to focus on is technique.  First of all, this will ensure that you don’t hurt yourself during the workout but it also ensures that you get the best possible workout.

Kettle weights training is very effective if your goal is weight loss, or if you just want to tone up your figure.  Give it a try.  If you have any tips or advice for women starting off with kettle weights training then please share them in the comments box below.
