5x5 Kettlebell Challenge v2

FROM: the desk of Forest Vance, Former Pro Football Player, Kettlebell Expert, Over 40 Training Specialist:

Dear fellow kettlebell fan:

Do you want to gain strength and muscle, while also losing body fat and improving your total body conditioning, all at the same time?

Would you like to be both effective and efficient, so that you can get the most out of your workouts in just 20-30 minutes per day, 3-4 days per week?

Do you want to learn how to do all of this with kettlebells, which are known to be gentle on the joints and improve movement and mobility?

You see, I used to play pro football, and during that time I lifted weights almost every day. I got pretty big and strong from doing that - I bench pressed 450 pounds, squatted 600, and power cleaned 375 at one point.

I realized that after I retired from football, my body wasn't as responsive to weightlifting.

It was taking me at least 90 minutes to go to the gym, do my lifts, and drive home.

The workouts that used to work great for me now also left me feeling injured and beat up.

I knew there had to be a better way!

I experimented with different types of training, like functional training, spin classes, and HIIT.

Eventually, I discovered kettlebells... and they were the solution I'd been looking for all along!

Kettlebells allow you to get a full body workout in a short amount of time. They build muscle, burn fat, and send your conditioning through the roof, all at the same time. And best of all, you feel GREAT after training with them, instead o beat up and injured!

I've written hundreds and hundreds of kettlebell training plans over the last 15 years as a full-time coach and business owner... but I think my latest is one of the best yet.

My latest program is based on the classic 5x5 training program, but it can be done with kettlebells in three short workouts per week!

The 5x5 workout is a strength training program that uses compound exercises to help you build size and strength. The program involves performing 5 sets of 5 reps of a chosen exercise, with the goal of increasing strength and size.

This type of workout is typically done with barbells; however, we are going to adapt this tried-and-true training method to use kettlebells instead!

One of the KEYS to making this program work with kettlebells is knowing where to start, and how to progress.

See, with the original program, once you can do five sets of five reps with a given weight, you just bump up the load – which is pretty straight forward if you’re using a barbell.

With kettlebells however, you typically have bigger jumps in weight – so we need to get a little more creative, and adjust things like tempo, rest period, exercise variation difficulty, etc.

These details are what we cover in the Challenge coaching and materials, and this is why you should sign up!

Now introducing:

Here's how it works:

With this new method, you’re going to use the classic 5x5 training method, but you'll use kettlebell exercises, which will not only help you gain strength and size, but you'll build your core, mobility, and avoid injury, all at the same time.
This is the PERFECT way to train if you want to gain strength and muscle, and also want to go a *little* easier on your body than the traditional heavy lifting approach.
There are both written descriptions and video breakdowns that show you how to do all the exercises and workouts - so that you can stay safe and avoid injury, AND maximize your results.
This is a COMPLETE training plan - so in addition to the three-times-per-week kettlebell workouts, you also get a daily mobility routine, dynamic warm ups, HIIT routines to perform 2-3x per week to get even faster results, and MUCH more.
I will keep you MOTIVATED and ACCOUNTABLE in our private group we have set up. You will post here every time you complete a workout and we'll cheer you on as well as answer any questions. This is something most programs do NOT address.

Instead of selling you on all the features and benefits of joining the program, I'm trying something different:

If you love it, you can continue after that for just $37 each 28 days as part of my on-going monthly KB Challenge program.

These kettbelell workouts are designed off of the classic 17-minute "Fight Gone Bad" format... only we're going to adapt it to make it better!!

See, it was originally designed for MMA fighters to match the time-domain and metabolic demands of a fight, the original workout consists of five minutes of work, one minute of rest, repeated for three (standard level) to five (championship level) rounds, with a score attached to the number of reps that you get for each exercise in the workout.

Whether you are a fighter or not, it makes for a heck of a training session!

But it burns a TON of fat, cranks up your metabolism for the rest of the day, and is a lot of fun, all at the same time.

"Loved the program!! I was looking for new ways to condition myself ... and found it with this program!! I will be using Forest's other programs especially for strength building!"

- Joel Robinson

"I loved this program. I can't believe it's already been four weeks. The workouts were awesome and you gave us so much great information and motivation. I lost five pounds. Endurance is hugely improved. Definite improvements in overall muscle definition. I will continue to incorporate these workouts into my trainings. Excellent format Forest, thank you!!"

- Carolyn Rudin

Probably lost some weight, definitely got some muscles... but the larger gain is that it helped me move on a different level, it could have been either physical or mental limitation, not sure ... also it is totally okay to do KB strength and this program's cardio together ... I will be doing HIIT and cardio days differently from now on :)"

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many kettlebells will I need to perform these workouts?

A: Just a couple of kettlebells are all you need. Recommended starting weights are a 16k and a 24k for men, an 8k and a 16k for women - but these suggestions could be bumped up or down based on training experience and current fitness level.

Q: Are these workouts suitable for all ages and fitness levels?

YES! I have designed the program with this specifically in mind. We have a "foundations" week before the actual program starts, specifically designed with helping you learn the kettlebell form and getting your fitness level up to speed. Then the workouts themselves are also adjustable and can be modified for all different fitness levels!

Q: I have XYZ injury - can I still do these workouts?

It depends on the injury. What I find is that most people do one of two things when they get injured: 1) stop exercising completely, or 2) keep working out, change nothing, and make the injury worse. I recommend something in between. And I try to give as many options and modifications as I can for all the exercises, so that you can adjust for your own particular situation.

PS - For the last 16 years, I have worked full time in the fitness industry.

I started as a personal trainer at a big box gym, ended up working as a personal training and club manager at several locations, then started my own personal training business in 2009.

During this time, I completed my Master's Degree in Human Movement from A.T. Still University in Mesa, Arizona.

I also have extensive training and experience teaching kettlebells, having gone through multiple RKC and StrongFirst certifications, teaching / assisting other trainers at these events, and even teaching workshops independently around the country.

I say all of this to let you know, I am qualified to be your kettlebell coach! :)

PPS - This is a powerful, game-changing program. And we get started on Monday, December 19th. Sign up today!
