If kettlebells are so great why don’t most major gyms have kettlebells?
i totally agree with bccorefitness, most gyms are there just to take your money and hope you dont use the gym too much. Its also true that ‘dangerous’ eqpt such a kettle bells require training support which is not provided and if it is you have to pay for it. The smaller gyms tend to offer more of an effective service in terms of actually getting fit, the exercises done in premium gyms do not really get the most return for your time.

Because most major gyms aren’t so great. Honestly, they are into making money, nothing wrong with that we all are. However, they want you to sign a year contract and then not show up so the gym doesn’t get overly crowded. When you do show up they don’t want to spend money on certified trainers to show you how to lift safely so they invest in machines that require less instruction to use. There are some great smaller local gyms, some that even train kettlebells, where you can get great instruction from a personal trainer who actually cares about you showing up and making progress because they understand that if you find success then you will keep coming back and you will bring friends with you. That is my philosophy by the way, I actually want you to reach your goals and get in great shape… imagine that?! Of course I don’t want to disrespect all trainers at major gyms, there really are some great ones out there and I even know a few of them.
