Time is of the essence. Ask anyone in the fitness profession that works with people, and you’ll find that the most common excuse people choose to believe for their lack of fitness is… and you’ll hear a unanimous response from the fitness pros: “I don’t have the time.”

We know that it’s code for a lack of prioritization for these people, but perception is reality. People really do think they need 1-2 hours in order to workout. They really do think they need to get to the gym, which requires a 10 minute drive to and from the gym for most people, then they have to get home to shower, feed the kids, and then head off to work.

+I’m here to tell you that it does not have to be this way.

Many people nowadays even worry about having to be all put together and “look good” at the gym nowadays with all the glam squads and meat wagons at the big box gyms trying to make it famous on instagram.

There’s some really good news though. All of the above can be remedied with the use of a kettlebell. You don’t need a gym membership, you don’t need to “glam it up” or “brad-chad” it up, you’re already at home to shower afterwards, and all of this can be done, literally in under 20 minutes.

How much can really get accomplished in 20 minutes you may ask? If you have to ask, it’s apparent you’ve never trained with kettlebells. It’s the best fat destroying, muscle building, and cardiovascular conditioning tool you’ll ever experience. It’s also the most economical option for nearly everyone.

Are you sold yet? Good. Because this is how I personally train myself 80% of the time, and at 36 years old, I’m leaner, stronger, and my body just feels like flexible steel. I want to share some safe, quick, and hard-hitting workouts for anyone to do who thinks they may be “too busy” to get into dangerously good shape.

Here are a couple formats with a few workouts for each one that I like to use for quick, hard-hitting kettlebell workouts for busy people.
