Took a while for Kettlebell Bootcamp with Angie Miller to arrive (I’m overseas) but it was worth the wait. Although I use free weights, this was my first session using kettlebells, so to play it safe I started out with a 5lb KB. (Something that I think should have been recommended for new KB users) I don’t normally watch tutorials but did this time, since KBs are new to me. It was short, but sufficient in addressing the correct KB usage and the primary movements used in the DVD. Following that I moved into the full workout. The movements were easy to follow and I really appreciated the different camera angles, which give a good visual reminder of how your body should look during each segment. The music was decent, as were Angie’s instructions. Neither were distracting nor irritating to listen to, and before I knew it the session was over. I feel like I got a good overall workout (balance was even worked into some of the moves) and expect even more of a challenge when I move to heavier KBs. I would have liked a few more plyometric moves and more matt work for the abs using the KBs, but as it stands, I’m sure I’ll be using this DVD on a regular basis. (Along with my Jerri Love “Ripped” DVDS and Anna & Ravi Kundalini Yoga DVDs)
Couple of suggestions to other people new to kettlebells — make sure your KBs have longer and wider grips/handles. The “handle” on my 5-lb kettlebell isn’t as long/wide as those used on Angie’s DVD, and it made some of the moves (such as passing the KBs from one hand to the other at top of the swing) a bit more difficult to accomplish, though still possible. Keep this in mind when purchasing your KBs. Also, to insure better balance when swinging the KB (especially while balancing on one leg), I’d recommend wearing shoes with good foot and ankle support.
Final recommendation –Amazon should allow reviewers to also edit their star rating. I first rated this at one star (since they asked for my review and at one month I still hadn’t received the DVD) I now give it four stars, but am not allowed to make that change in my updated review.

I have just recently began using the kettlebell and love the workout it gave me but I ordered this DVD when I got “bored” with the DVD that came with my kettlebell. I was so excited to receive my new DVD and completed the entire workout that night. I thought I was in pretty decent shape but let me tell you, I felt it later that night and for the next couple days. I like a pretty long workout and this one comes with about 10 segements that are 10 minutes or so long. You can do as little or as many segements as you’d like. The only negative thing I can say about this is that Angie doesn’t go into much detail about the correct way to use the kettlebell so make sure you know how to use it. She is a little dry and boring but the great workout makes up for that. All in all I think this is a wonderful workout for anyone wanting great toning and cardio. I think it’s appropriate for all fitness levels. Even if you have never worked out I think you could take this slow and work your way up to more segements. The kettlebell is a wonderful workout and this DVD will give you great results.

This is a really good Kettlebell workout for home. Angie throws in some moves that are quite challenging, but has a modifier with her. I would say this is an intermediate kettlebell workout, but even if you’re an advanced exerciser, but not an advanced KETTLEBELL user, you’ll find this workout is challenging.
