New exercises are great for those that want to keep switching up their workouts. I had never heard of Kettlebells before. Thanks for keeping us up to date!

Hey Mark and Mike

Thanks for your comments.

Mark, will happily go through some of those exercises at our national camp.

Mike, you’re spot on about the cost of the kettlebells being well worth it. The exercise effect is amazing.

I liked the podcast…
I’ve been using KBs for a few years now, and they’re pretty good for strength endurance, which is perfect for martial arts.

Buying a few kettlebells is way cheaper than a year’s gym membership!

I can also say with confidence as a former couch potato, that doing kettebell swings a few times a week keeps my knees pain-free, both in karate and jogging. If I get lazy with the KBs, I feel the difference.

During the interview Don mentions an exercise that I am interested in, “get ups”. He related them to something that is of importance to me - shoulders. Will have to try and get a chance to discuss this withyou next month when we get together!

Great show as always, keep up the good work!

Hi Felix. Thanks for dropping by, and for leaving a comment. I’ve fixed the spelling on Don’s name, and also the URL. I should’ve got this right - just spent the weekend with him doing the instructors course!

Didn’t know this podcast existed! Good interview, I’ve favourited your page. btw: Don’s surname is spelt “Stevenson”, and you missed the *.au on the link.

Looking forward to next podcast!
