I was one of the first certified Kettlebell instructors in the state of Colorado 2005 and opened Colorado's first kettlebell gym in 2006. I was certified directly by the man who brought modern kettlebell training from Russia to the US, Pavel Tsatsouline. After spending years doing "Hard Style" kettlebell training and a very brief stint into Kettlebell Sport (hated it but took 1st place at a small meet) I have modified my training. I realize that most people really want to look as good as they can which means building as much muscle as they can and getting lean. Nothing... NOTHING is better at building muscle than science-based bodybuilding. So most of the training we do with kettlebells is actually bodybuilding focused. For my athletes I also incorporate dynamic exercises that can help them create rotational explosiveness.
