Amazon.com Product Description
Created by international fitness sensation Michelle Khai, Kettlenetics is a dance-inspired kettle bell exercise program that swings, slims, and sculpts your entire body. This revolutionary three-dimensional weight-swinging workout has all the fat-burning, muscle-shaping benefits of resistance training but without the awkward, heavy weights of traditional weight lifting. With easy, flowing moves set to upbeat music, Kettlenetics is a fun and fast way to develop a stronger and more slender body.
The Kettlenetics Slim and Tone Kit includes three Kettlenetics Slim and Tone Workouts on one DVD. The first two 20-minute workouts teach you the Kettlenetics basics. KB Elements teaches everything you need to know to get the most from your kBell. FlowMotion Basics gives you 360-degree body sculpting workout with unique standing and floor exercises. The 40-minute Cardio Balanced workout is a powerful fat burner that takes the kBell workout to the next level.
The uniquely designed four-pound Kettlenetics kBell included in the kit is curved, sleek, and fits easily in your hand for smooth 360-degree full body-slimming movements. The kBell has an offset, sure-grip handle to better maneuver through creator Michelle Khai's innovative flowMotion movement patterns. Weighing just four pounds, the kBell is light enough to swing without undue stress, yet heavy enough to provide body-shaping resistance.
Benefits of Kettlenetics:
Kettlenetics Slim and Tone was created by international fitness sensation Michelle Khai, a lifelong fitness advocate, former professional dancer, and all-star celebrity trainer. Michelle has been working with world-class ballet dancers from the NYC Ballet and Miami City Ballet for years, creating custom body-slimming kettlebell workouts to help the dancers strengthen and tone muscles while staying sleek and slender. Now, for the first time ever, she has made that program available to everyone.
Having discovered the "swing secrets" to quickly slimming and toning dancers' bodies, Michelle decided to create an all-new kettlebell workout that would create amazing results for women everywhere. Unable to find a kettlebell that would work with her program, Michelle set about creating her very own kBell that is light enough for graceful fluid movement and heavy enough for fast, body-sculpting results. Michelle owns Soma Fitness And Performance in South Beach, Florida, and continues to lead kettlebell training research.

The company understands that the opportunity to affect people's lives with information and products is both a privilege and a responsibility.

The name Gaiam is a fusion of the words Gaia (the name of Mother Earth from the Minoan civilization in ancient Crete), and I am, which reminds us that we are all interconnected with the Earth, the air, and the water, and very much a part of this living system that sustains us all.
I purchase the kettlenetics program when it first came out in June 2008. Within the first week I started to notice a difference. It is a fun workout that targets all different muscle groups. One con that I did have in the beginning was that I had trouble following the routine. I am not naturally coordinated and have no dance background, so while following the quicker paced movements might be easy for some, it took me a few days to be able to get through the routine. If you are going to do this program I also recommend additional cardiovascular training. I was not in shape at all when I started and could barely get through a video without stopping to catch my breath.
Overall if you are willing to put in the time and the effort this is a great tool to get slim and toned
First Workout DVD I Ever Purchased
This was the first time I've ever ordered a DVD workout. I thought about the 10 minute version of P90-X but it looked boring to me. I ordered Kettlenetics because it seemed to be low impact, different, exciting and without a lot of grunting and groaning. This workout is no joke! I have been in a boot camp exercise program before but this little Asian lady kicks my butt! The moves are elegant and graceful but half way through the workout you are begging for mercy. I've had it for about two weeks and my thighs have definition, my arms are more slender. Still working on the abs but that's pretty much all my fault because I have a thing for 7-11's glazed donuts. Best low impact workout ever! I love it.
Excellent DVD, Poor Equipment
This is my first Amazon product review, so bear with me.
I ordered the Gaiam Kettlenetics Slim and Tone Kit based on the previous reviewers' opinions. The kit arrived promptly and without any damage to the package, so kudos to Amazon.
I was completely surprised when I opened the box and discovered that the kettlebell was a tiny 4 pound thing that I can barely hold in one of my XL hands. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. The kettlebell is pictured on the box, held by the instructor. There's nothing to indicate that the handle is incredibly small! Or that this kit is intended for women only.
Luckily, I was able to adapt by substituting one of my dumbbells for all of the workouts on the DVD. Each workout is excellent - well lit, plenty of good camera angles, and the instructor is very helpful, explaining not only the fundamentals of the kettlebell workout, but the reasons why you're doing all of the various movements. She's exactly right in her approach. I never felt like a beginner, even though this is my first experience with kettlebells.
My advise is to try and find the DVD sold seperatly and buy a larger kettlebell, especially if you have big hands. If your glove size is XL/XXL, buy a bigger kettlebell seperately. I can't emphasize this enough.
