Kettlebell Training Burns 1200 Calories Per Hour?

Recently ACE (The American Council on Exercise) was so concerned about the claims from kettlebell training that they decided to do a study on the calorie burn of kettlebell training.

ACE is one of the oldest and most respected fitness research and certifying bodies in the United Sates. And they're ultra conservative, they don't do fads, they don't do gimmicks... they - they don't even do new or cutting edge! They're oldschool. They want proof.

Read the article and the results here:


Read about the study in the January/February 2010 ACE FitnessMatters:



Researchers credit the brisk calorie burning to the fact that the kettlebell snatch workout is a total-body movement that is also done very quickly due to the interval-training format. “We knew it would be extremely intense,” says Schnettler. “It’s a quick workout, and you do get a big bang for your buck in a very short amount of time.”
