NEWS! You can now keep up to date with Irish Kettlebell Info updates on twitter!
and I've added an Irish Kettlebell Info Blog!

"Welcome to Irish Kettlebell Info.com!"

Kettlebell lifting is still relatively new in "the West" though it has been practised in Eastern Europe and Russia possibly back as far as 1704. Widely used across the world by Strongmen in the early 1900s it faded away before making a comeback in the last decade and a half.

Typing "Kettlbell" into a search engine will present you with over 3/4 of a million hits! All of these sites contain either the proven best workout in the world ever, 10 reasons why you should sell everything in your gym and replace them with kettlebells or links to training videos put together by every random person who can work a video camera. About 3 different groups, possibly more, hold international competitions and thus have claims to being the world governing body of the competitive aspect of kettlebell lifting.

From my own personal experience I have found getting information specific to Ireland to be very difficult, such as where to get a training qualification or where the best place to buy kettlebells from is.

So I've set up this website to help out people looking for information on kettlebell lifting in Ireland, whether you are looking to try a new and exciting fitness technique, want to train for a specific sport, become a qualified instructor, get a world ranking, become World Kettlebell Lifting Champion or...just to lose your beer belly...all the information you need to meet your goal is here!
