Michigan Kettlebells Strength & Training Center — Local services in Troy

I took the 7 week challenge thinking I would work out a bit, diet a bit, and lose 5-10 lbs. I never even thought about a Paleo diet that Craig (the owner) is an advocate of. After looking it over, and with my wife's help, I decided to give it a go. For me it was the best diet ever, if you like eating steak and chicken and pork. Between diet and exercise I lost over 25 lbs in the 7 week challenge. The gym and the people were fantastic, friendly, and with easy to learn instructions, I was feeling confident the very first day. The class sizes were small with personal attention to form, and I never felt bad for not being able to do as many reps as the regulars. I would recommend this gym and program to anyone, young or old, in or out of shape. I have lost 35 lbs to date and have the tools and confidence to continue my weight loss journey. MICHIGAN...

First, seriously consider adding kettlebells to your workout routine. They are a 100+ year old Russian technique for strength training. I've added significant muscle, agility, core-strength and mobility since taking this up (at age 52).

Next, don't hesitate to visit Michigan Kettlebells! I joined this gym nine (9) years ago and still enjoy the coaches, fellow athletes and the workouts. Craig and Dawn run this gym without any arrogance (because they have none) and pressure (encouragement yes, pressure, no). Nearly every single exercise/move can be tailored to your current strength and mobility... you can leave any intimation in the trunk of your car!

Guy or gal, young or dirt-old (like me), this place...

A great place for fitness! My intent was to learn the right technique and all instructors are always there to make sure you do the right way and not hurt yourself. The workouts are changing all the time so you never get bored. if there is a workout you can not do, they can replace it with another workout for the same muscle so you are not standing doing nothing while others are busy working out. All instructors including Craig are so easy to work with and approachable and willing to help out. I highly recommend this place. You will...
