Kettlebells. There’s just a certain ‘something’ about a good kettlebell. A design simplicity that belies the attributes contained within. A good kettlebell is evenly balanced, robust and resilient. Although the ‘finish’ may chip over time and through use, it is capable of withstanding more than a few knocks and will remain ‘fit for purpose’, whether that purpose requires strength, endurance, mobility and/or conditioning.

Much like a good kettlebell, a person should strive to be balanced, robust and resilient – both in their life and training. Whilst a person will invariably experience various challenges throughout their ‘real’ and training lives, I’m convinced that it is the person that is strong(literally and figuratively), enduring and adaptable that will be best equipped to deal with such challenges.
