Not sure where you are but here in Boston we had the first taste of winter this week. Were you ready to come out from under ALL those winter clothes? I got tell I wasn’t I tried on a pair of pants and OOOps, not what I was expecting, So, if you are like me you’re feeling that Memorial Day is less than a month away.  Every day for the next 30 days, I will be giving you a small simple healthy tip you can easily incorporate into life.

You seen them on infomercials or maybe at the gym.  It called a kettlebell and it has been around since the 1800s and now the great training program is getting a major resurgence.  Okay enough history, what does it do for me? Well the kettlebell combines FAT BURNING and STRENGTH training.  You heard me.  Cardio and lifting in one!!!!

There is a little bit of a learning curve and you can do it at home!!

For a quick workout, I do 10 rounds of:

• 10 double handed swings
• 10 single handed swings
• Jump rope for 1 min

Take a 30 second break
