Five exercises to get fit for fall

Kettlebell Sport Description
A Kettlebell is a traditional Russian cast iron weight that looks like a cannonball with a handle. First used to train Olympians and Eastern European strongmen, its history can be traced as far back as the 1800s. Kettlebell Sport emerged in Europe over 60 years ago and has recently gained popularity in the U.S. The sport is designed to increase strength, stamina, and coordination by challenging the muscular, cardiovascular and central nervous systems simultaneously.
