Kettlebell 5 Pillars Workout

If you are looking to get in shape, there are many tools available, including the option of using no tools at all (i.e., bodyweight exercises).  If you want OPTIMAL training, you should choose the best tool for the job.  Nothing beats a fully equipped gym, with access to a large variety of tools.  However, you may not have access to a gym, or you may choose to do something less optimal (but still effective) because it is more fun or convenient.  The best program is the one you will actually do, consistently, week in and week out.  If you like training with kettlebells, you can get an effective whole body workout if you train the 5 pillars.  Depending on the tools you have available and your goals, you could turn this into a strength program, a conditioning program, a high calorie burn program or a hybrid program.   Even with this single tool you have lots of flexibility.  This simple program framework will help you to get started and give you a framework to build from.
