Gaiam The FIRM 5lb Kettle Bell Kit Review and $50 Gift Certificate Giveaway to CSN Stores! - CLOSED


CSN Stores has over 200 online stores where you can find everything from dumbbells and exercise balls to dinnerware!  I love CSN Stores!  Everytime I need something, they always have it!


First Impression: When I got the box, I was very excited, I had heard how great of a workout the kettlebell was, so I couldn't wait to try it.  The purple kettle bell that came in the
Gaiam's The Firm 5 lb Kettle bell Kit
was definitely cute!  But don't let it's looks deceive you.

Style/Choices:  CSN Stores has many different kettle bells and kettle bell kits to choose from.  I chose Gaiam's The Firm 5 lb Kettle bell Kit because it was a great price and I definitely needed some guidance and instruction.

Functionality: I can't remember the last time I did a workout I couldn't finish.  There are two workouts, a 45 minute one and a 20 minute one.  Since I had gotten up really early (4:30am yeesh!) I decided to do the 45 minute one.  After ten minutes I swear that my muscles were already sore.  Not like the pulling you get during a workout, I am talking about the soreness you get the day after a really intense and strenuous workout.  I ignored the soreness and kept plugging away.  There is actually a woman to follow in the background who doesn't do anything full out, for the more novice kettle bell users.  Of course, I followed the leader and scoffed at the lady doing the girly push ups.  Well, 40 minutes into it with 5 minutes left I had to stop.  Now those of you who know me personally, know that I never give up, never stop.  In fact at the gym I have to go faster and stay longer than everyone else on the ellipticals near me (no the are not aware that I am constantly competing with them).  So now I have a goal, in one month I will master the 45 minute kettle bell workout!    

How it Promotes a Healthy Lifestyle:  Gaiam's The Firm 5 lb Kettle bell Kit definitely promotes a healthy lifestyle!  Oh my goodness this thing kicks booty!  It works your arms, legs, core, you name it!  If you follow the video they will take you through all of the exercises and I guarantee you will feel each and every muscle straining and working to it's fullest.

Cost Effective: If you look a the price of most kettle bell kits, you will see that this is definitely a great low price, shop around and see.

Pros: 
  • It works most of your body's muscles
  • It even does cardio!
  • Amazing price
  • Did I mention that purple is my favorite color?

Cons:
  • You will be sore!
