Kettlenetics Slim and Tone Program was developed by Michelle Khai and looks like another ridiculous contender in the already crowded ‘new workout’ infomercial category.
I love the way an already fit individual can come up with some ridiculous workout and claim that if you follow along you too can look as good as them.
The problem is that often times the best workouts are ridiculous sounding or looking and seem to go against traditional exercise wisdom. So because some ridiculous routines actually work it opens the door to every hard body with some spunk, money, and marketing skills.
The Kettlenetics program describes itself as an exercise routine based on very traditional kettle bell movements with more flowing and dance moves blended into it. “Traditional kettle bell movements” is pretty funny - I guess we’re supposed to be familiar with these “very traditional” moves. Let’s face it, it’s movement with a hand weight. That’s it - not too revolutionary. The part that irks me is additional of flowing dance like movements, because if you’re going to move with weights in your hands you had better be careful about what kind of movement you make. Unless of course you are keen to get injured - but that would be your own fault for not seeing your doctor before starting the exercise program (as you are warned to do before starting the workout).
Kettlenetics does not sound like a good idea at all - but if you’re keen on trying it out just pickup a couple gallons of milk (similar to holding a kettle bell) and try dancing around the room.

Kettlebell training is actually quite effective. However, check out my article here:
actually, I’ve been doing aerobics/cardio…Tae Bo for years and light resistance training and saw this, ordered it, and I Love it. It uses muscles that Tae Bo/Turbo Jam didn’t and it’s fun.
It’s not like holding two heavy objects and dancing around the room at all…..
You should try this before you write that…and I’m not affiliated with Michelle in any way.
