Kettlebell good cardio?

[PeasantPlayer]

Diet is 1, but before I start lifting was wondering if kettlebell workouts would be a solid aerobic exercise with out getting bulky?

As a supplement to regular strength training? Fantastic. Increased muscular & cardiovascular capacity.

As a standalone exercise regime? If you just want general fitness, and to sort of look like you're in shape, it is fine.

I've got half a dozen kettlebell complexes I can post up if you wish, from beginner to vomit inducing.

Excellent workout IF you do the kettlebell exercise correctly. You can hurt yourself if you do not maintain proper form.

Just aerobic? Are you looking for lean/cut or just in shape/athletic?

Just did a 30 minute kettlebell youtube workout and 30 minutes regular cardio.
It was a beginner video but it kicked my ass!

Good stuff Peasant.

My apologies for not posting the workouts, they are hidden away in a folder, somewhere in my garage gym. I will try to find them today then post.

Messing up helps identify adjustments nothing wrong with messing up

The benefits of using a kettlebell during your workout are countless. You will find after consistent use in just a few sessions that your balance, endurance, strength, and coordination are improved.

Unlike most traditional exercise machines, kettlebells do not isolate particular muscles but rather require whole-body movements that will give you a much more productive workout. By incorporating these useful tools in your workout, you will build strength in your tendons and ligaments, which can prevent injury.
