This is a video clip from one of Steve Cotter’s kettlebell instructional DVD sets. It is a bonus video which is included on the DVD.

Remember this during weight loss exercise:
Never focus on the amount of weight you are lifting, the idea is to keep your heart rate up for as long as possible in order to burn calories. You need to do workouts that really get your heart rate up for at least 30 min or more to burn lots of calories. Your target heart rate depends on your age, height, and weight.

When learning new lifts, keep the weight very low until you have mastered the technique. Only when you can do exercises flawlessly, should you attempt to increase weight.
The size of the weight is not important. The only thing you need to focus on is attaining your target heart rate for the duration of the exercise. I suggest you stick with the weight you have until it becomes way too easy and you are unable to keep your heart rate in the target zone for the time you exercise. Then, you can move up to the 16kg kettlebell.
Which dvd was this bonus by Steve Cotter on? Does anyone know where you can get the article he mentioned?
Does anyone know the exact name of the Steve Cotter’s tape that this is a bonus to?
Also, where can you get a copy of the article that he mentioned?
I want to try kettlebells. I need to lose over 130 lbs. and haven’t worked with weights in years. I tried this exercise with a 25 lb dumbell and I got fairly winded. Most things I’ve read on kettlebells say men should start with 16kg/35lb. Should I workout with the 25 lb dumbell until I feel I can move up to a 35lb kettlebell? I think I’ll be ready for the heavier one in about a month. Or should I go ahead and buy the 35lb and just work out for shorter time periods?
