Just done Cardio week two, feeling sick now though
Good for you for doing Cardio week 2! Ugh, though, I hate that feeling.
Hope it passes quickly for you. My old personal trainer told me once that sipping some juice diluted 50/50 with water and with a tiny (!) pinch of salt stirred in can help restore the electrolyte balance, a bit like DIY lucozade. That might help?

Just done the 20 min kettlercise and managed 45 secs on each move. Aim to be on full mins by end of next week. Does anyone else find it irritating that the warm up is on DVD1? Mind you it gives me an excuse to take a breather.

Go daisybell!
Sounds like you are making good progress. I read in the reviews of kettlercise that the warmup is on DVD 1, that was the main thing that put me off trying it (which is probably silly as I'm sure that otherwise it's very good) as I think I'd find it quite irritating as well!

Cat Lover Sue said:Psst! Sneaks in to show off. I reached my target at WI this morning! :gimi: 5 stone 7 lbs of flab has disappeared in 48 weeks! I am now a comfortable size 16 top and bottom - would be less on top if it wasn't for my mahoosive gazongers but hey, what can you do!
Stage two of operation "Kiss My Skinny Ass" starts here. I'm going for another stone off which will put me into the "normal" BMI bracket. Somehow "just" losing a stone seems a doddle compared to over 5, but I know its going to be tough. Still, no pain, no gain, eh!
Well done!!

Just finish week 1 with cardio. Never ceases to amaze me just how difficult that session is! first time leaving it do last in week one, not sure if that was a good idea as I had to spend the whole day working up courage to do it!
Delighted as I managed to do all punches with my 6!
Triceps have already started to take shape again.
Happy swinging everyone!

Vol II ? I didn't realize there was a second one. Is it a newer version or totally different. I have Kettlercise "Just for Women"

I am getting near my two stone weight loss target and have promised myself a second kettlebell DVD as a reward. I already have Kettlercise "Just for Women"
What kettlebell DVD would you recommend and why?

Hiya
I've got Kettlercise for women Vol 1 and agree the warmup being on dvd 1 is so annoying.......I do my own warm up when using dvd 2 ha ha! Have to say though love the mixture of the exercises kettlercise offers Ive been to a kettlercise class to and its very popular!
I've hear Lauren Brooks dvd's are brill I've just ordered her brand new one from ebay Lauren Brooks - lightning kettlebells - got good reviews and some great fast fat burning exercises on it ;o)

Phew, Morning All - Wk2 Cardio just finished. I am sweating like a pig on a very warm day! Little tip for those that experience sweaty palms etc. I always keep a flannel by my side so I can wipe my hands and the bell handle during the routine, but also had a brainwave today. I wrapped the flannel round the bell for the KB Hold - the one where you are in a squat position and just hold the bell directly out in front of you - and this completely stopped my hands from slipping on the bell. Hey its only taken me about 10 months to figure that one out!

Well done everyone! And Cat Lover Sue!!! Woweeeeee!!
I did KW week 2 core on Friday and resistance today - same as Croc. I do find the core the easiest of the three. Lots of balancing ones in resistance this time - those was hard. I could really feel my muscles working - especially in the curtsy lunges.
I go on holiday on Friday and want to get week 3 done before I go. I want to take my bell on hols with me so I can do week 4 but as my partner has fallen behind (he only did 2 week 1 workouts then stopped which miffed me a bit) I don't know I'd I can. I'm really committed to this and even thinking of cancelling my gym membership.

Thanks Lindsay and Aymz. Much appreciated.
Lindsay, my bells are coming with us on hols. No worries about baggage allowances though as we're in the car.

Great to see so many people rocking kettleworx week 2! Just finished week 2 core, for the first time with my 7.5 lb bell instead of my 5 lb.
