Kettlebell...yes or no?

Hi all,
I have never posted on this specific forum before, so hopefully I can get some great help. I am starting a kettlebell 12 week program and wanted to know if anyone has tried a kettlebell training workout. If so, do you think is it worth my time? I am looking to lose about 10 pounds and tone up my stomach and backside :). I don't want to get all buff or anything but a well tone shape would be great. Do you all think kettlebell is a good fit for these needs? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch!!

Yeah dude, Kettle Bells are awesome. Go for it! Welcome to the Board... Stick around and come back often!!!

Anything that uses resistance and gets you moving is a good thing.  I have never used the kettlebells but have seen that they have done good things for some friends.

I started going to a kettlebell class three weeks ago.  They are definitely intense and work all parts of the body.  It is a great way to get tone and doesn't involve really heavy weights.  Get ready to sweat.

Thanks for the feed back everyone, I am on day two of my KB training and it is sure kicking me in the behind! I love it so far but we will have to see how I feel once I can see some results.
