Just as I was about to shelve the ‘bell for the next 5 months, I remembered this amazing trainer and knew that I had to get her new DVD: Baby Bells the Fit Pregnancy Kettlebell Workout DVD Lauren Brooks.The DVD is chaptered and includes a joint mobility/warm-up, three workout sections and a cool-down stretch. Lauren includes modifications for all levels and stages of pregnancy. I love Lauren’s training style and the fact that she is cruising through this workout at 6 1/2 months pregnant kept me very motivated.
I got a fantastic workout and I’m so happy I can continue to safely use
my kettlebell throughout my pregnancy.

I love this DVD, it gets your heartrate up and is fun and thorough, it could benefit anyone not pregnant (beginners,intermed, advanced.) I have used it throughout my pregnancy and I have used Kettlebells for 5 years. I have modified it to make it harder or easier on days I have more energy or less, depending on circumstances.Just wanted to tell you I LOVE the Baby Bells workout. It's doable but still totally challenging!

The follow-up DVD that you have been waiting for is finally here! Come workout again with Lauren Brooks as she performs some of the most intense fat burning and strengthening exercises in the world.

What are people saying about the new DVD:
Lauren - my sister and I (the sister I bought a second copy of your DVD for!) want to say we don't know how you would improve upon this new DVD. We love the strength in the Grind, the cardio aspect of the Smoker, the awesome cardio in the Finisher, and the great ab workout. Gosh! We are both advanced exercisers so our only hope is that your forthcoming DVDs are as intense as this one. Great job!!! Happy New Year!!

Lauren, I just wanted to drop you a note to say we love your new k-bell dvd.
We've been using your last one for the last few months, with great results, but the new one is even better.
Love the Turkish Getups, especially. Thanks for the motivation.

I've only had this DVD a while and already I'm recommending it to just about
everyone who wants to get started with kettlebells, and/or to women who are
looking for a quick, efficient workout that builds real-world strength and
fitness. Brooks offers a comprehensive introduction to some basic kettlebell
movements along with some bodyweight exercises such as pushups, mountain climbers
and squat thrusts (aka burpees).

Seeing each exercise broken down step-by-step and demonstrated was a huge asset to me. For someone that has never picked up a Kettlebell, the step-by-step demonstrations and explanations provided are clear, concise and simple to comprehend. If that were not enough, which is plenty, there follow along workouts that can be done as many times as you can! Moreover, Lauren makes sure to provide modifications for the exercise for varying fitness levels. This means that this DVD can be beneficial to anyone regardless of fitness level or kettlebell experience.

This is Lauren’s first DVD. We give it an unqualified “MUST BUY” rating for any budding kettle-belle. It features a solid instructional section covering 15 primary kettlebell drills. The instruction is crisp, to the point, and easy to follow. You’ll also find a nice joint mobility section for warm up & cool down. Finally, there are 2 follow-along workouts which efficiently combine both strength & cardio.
Lauren has managed to cast kettlebell training in a more accessible, mainstream
manner. The graphic design, production, and instruction are instantly appealing
to modern women. That’s not to say it is watered down, soft, or girly. Rather,
we’d describe the overall theme as Girl Power!

I just finished watching Lauren Brooks’s DVD, “The Ultimate Body Sculpt and Conditioning with Kettlebells” and it was AWESOME. I am a big believer of mixing up your program and adding new techniques to shock your muscles….so if you haven’t tried kettlebells yet and are interested in a non-intimidating, female-friendly program, then CHECK HER OUT.

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the best workout
(and so much more) DVD I have ever bought. Nice Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lauren: Hello! I was lucky enough to trip across your website and ordered
your new DVD. I absolutely love it. I have to tell you honestly, that your
instruction is by far the most straight forward and easy to follow than any
of the other DVDs out there. I’ve tried for years to master some of the basic
techniques and have struggled. For instance, I had never ever been taught
to do a “clean” the way you taught it, and used to simply accept that bruised
forearms went along with the territory. So thank you!
I wish I lived near Southern California, but unfortunately, I’m clear across
the country in Washington, DC. Still, I’m thrilled that I learned about you.
You really make this workout much more accessible than ever!

As kettlebells are becoming more popular in the United States, so are
the KB instructors that promote their use for fitness goals. After purchasing
most of the kettlebells videos on the market by the professed "big boys"
of Kettlebell mania, I can only say that Lauren's new video stands alone and
stands strong. What struck me immediately is that she has the ability to break
down a kettlebell exercise and make it extremely user friendly. Her video
presence is genuine and straight forward...no bravado or marketing gimmicks.
It is perfect for the beginner who may be intimidated by the newness of training
with kettlebells or the seasoned kettle bell user. The video is extremely
user friendly which is easily followed, especially her narrative as she progresses
through each exercise and work out.
I would recommend this video to anyone wanting a foundation in the proper
use of kettlebells and training work outs. She is a powerhouse trainer who
keeps it simple and keeps it real.

I did Lauren Brooks' Ultimate Body Sculpt and Conditioning with Kettlebells
workout for the first time. I was blown away. For as young as Lauren is
she is amazing. This is one tough workout that will get your heart rate
up and it stays up. You WILL have DOMS the next day. Lauren has perfect
form
on all the exercises and gives great pointers along the way. The workout
format is great as well. This is one workout that will definitely be added
to my rotation.

Lauren Brooks' fat burning workout is effective and interesting. Comrades ladies, enjoy Southern California style
training!
Pavel Tsatsouline, the author of Enter the Kettlebell!
Thank you so much for making the perfect, absolutely perfect 15 minute
fat blaster. Being I am just starting this was/is a great routine. I do not
have to figure out what to do when and how many and the order of progression.
I am glad I bought this. I am so glad. I feel like I can achieve a goal because
I can do this.

WoW! Ok so I have a group of friends with whom I have been training while
deployed here in Iraq. I had brought with me two 35 pound kettlebells and
introduced them to some people who were unhappy with the stale army style
of PT that they were taught. So after working with them on the 35 pounders
for a while one guy decided to upgrade to a 44 pounder from AOS and I got
an Ader bell at 50 pounds. We had (so I thought) progressed beyond the 35
pound weight for sustained workouts. Then, a female friend of mine showed
interest and ordered an 18 pound cannonball and I had directed her to your
site for some more info. I knew she would be excited about beginning so as
a gift I got for her your new DVD. It arrived two days ago. Today, I got
my what I thought was a fairly in shape behind handed to me! My 35 pound
KB and I thought we'd be supportive and do the 40 minute conditioning workout.
It was awesome!! It was for me the perfect change of pace, reps, volume,
and circuit style program that apparently I needed to progress to another
level. Thank the heavens I had a feeling you would produce a high quality
and intense workout so I did NOT take the 50 pound bell! My friend and her
18 pound KB formed a very special bond as well. As she lay on the ground
drenched in sweat she looked from me to her kettlebell and stared at it in
wonder! Like Ponce De Leon and the fountain of youth finally united! And
so, with the help of one ball of iron and your DVD, another believer is born,
and one semi-smug male was humbled once again. Awesome DVD, absolutely love
it and so does she! Thanks for putting it, we look forward to what lay in
the future. From one Army Sergeant and one Specialist----Thank You!!

I am a 48 year old mom with 4 girls ranging from 4th – 9th grade. I have been
doing home workouts since the mid 1980’s. Two weeks ago I picked up a kettlebell
and DVD at Sports Chalet and quickly got hooked. I have been searching the
internet for more and found your DVD which I promptly ordered. I received
it yesterday and am very excited to have it – it is the best workout DVD
I’ve ever seen and I have had over a hundred!

Lauren,
I want to thank you so much for your personal responses regarding your Kettlebell workouts when I emailed you just a couple of days ago, I am recently a newbie of Kettlebell and I love love love your workout, the time flies and you make a fun but yet effective workout in the amount of time. One of the things that appealed to me is that the workout is 40 minutes which myself I just don't have the time in my busy schedule to get much more than that, now with this DVD there really is no need to do anymore as you get a great workout in this dvd alone ( The Ultimate Body & Conditioning with Kettlebells ). I am already noticing some changes and I have only done approximately 4 KB workouts so far. Give this DVD and Lauren a chance, you won't regret it! :)
I have already referred some friends to your DVD and I know they will love the results as well as your personal instruction. I can't wait for any upcoming DVD's.
I had been doing other workouts such as Cathe, Firm, Turbo Jam, running, etc I got so tired of the boredom factor, now I wake up and can't wait to get to a good fun workout :)
Thank you,
Laura H., Vancouver, WA.
Hi Lauren,
Your dvd is great!! I've not had much success with dvds after working with a trainer, but yours is perfect!!
Keep up the great work.
take care,
Julie
Hi Lauren,
First I wanted to thank you for making such a great workout DVD. Being out of shape, I have been discouraged by other exercise DVDs in the past, feeling like I would never get in decent enough shape to get through an entire workout in good form, so I would give up too easily. I am a very busy mom to an active 3 year old son, with a husband deployed to Iraq, so my time to workout is in very short supply.
I ordered your DVD and bought a very light (7 lb) kettlebell. I started off with one set of the 12 minute workout and after a week progressed to doing it twice through. The 7lb bell felt too light, so I moved up to a 15 lb a couple of weeks later and have started using that with one set of the 12 minute workout. I am still able to maintain good form and feel like I could do another set, so I will start doing it twice through tomorrow.
Again, I want to thank you for your very motivating and inspirational DVD. Including a 12-minute workout was genius because it gives beginners a real confidence boost. After completing the workouts, I feel exhilarated and excited to get stronger and do more. My body feels pleasantly tight afterwards and not so sore that I don't feel like exercising the next day.
You are a great trainer and I'd love to attend one of your classes sometime (when I get in better shape).
Sincerely,
Christine McMillen, La Mesa, CA
As an at-home exerciser over the past 10 years, I own and use over 30 advanced
exercise DVD’s in addition to a full arsenal of equipment to accompany these
workouts – dumbbells ranging from 3 lbs to 20 lbs, Power Blocks up to 65 lbs,
3 barbells, 150 lbs of weight plates, a bench, dyna bands, stability ball, Bosu
ball, and pull up bar.
Recently I discovered Kettlebells and Lauren Brooks' Ultimate Body Sculpt and
Conditioning with Kettlebells DVD. This phenomenal DVD and my 2 kettlebells have
now become the most powerful, effective and efficient tools that I own. The production
of your first DVD was done so well and very professionally. As many Cathe DVDs
that I have, I don't believe I have one as flawless as your DVD. That being said,
and after meeting you and experiencing your class, I am already sold on any DVD
(or anything) that has your name on it!
Karen Gallo, Carmel Valley
I just wanted to say Thank You so much for putting out your DVD. I started
using Kettlebells a few months ago and have bought a ton of DVD's. Not
until two weeks ago did I come across yours. The instructions are the
best. The way the video is put together is much better than others. You
take your time explaining each move, the moves are not rushed(I feel I can
keep the pace), and the results are amazing. Hopefully there will be more
workouts in the future!

Lauren: I am a personal trainer and my husband and I have been acquainted with KB's since about 2000. He has done them regularly; me, not so much.
However, I was getting tired of my routine and wanted to combine weight training with cardio to save time. So, I decided to give KBs another try. I found your website while surfing the net and asked for your DVD for Christmas. I did the 40 minute workout today and it kicked my butt! Your demonstrations and explanations are great and it's not boring to watch :). I should tell you that I am 56 years old and have been training myself for almost 28 years (I've been a personal trainer for 8).
This DVD will keep me going for quite awhile. Thanks for putting out such a great product!
Gyl Gunstream - Glendora, CA
Hi Lauren,
I bought your Ultimate Body Sculpt workout and I LOVE it!!! Thank you so much for making a DVD so that people like me, who can't make it to your classes, can still get a great workout at home! Looks like you're doing great. I recommend you to everyone.
Thanks again, Sheila Jeschke , Oceanside
Hi Lauren,
I just wanted to tell you I LOVE your kettle-bell DVD - it is excellent! I had never used kettle-bells until I used your video and your instructions were so easy to understand I picked it right up! The video is professional and I love seeing the 2 minute timer. Between the specific exercises and the precise 2 minute on/1 minute rest I feel like I get an amazing work-out every time I do the video. Thank you and I'm so glad I stumbled upon your website!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Hi Lauren,
My name is Susan, and my husband and I ordered your Ultimate Body Sculpt workout before Christmas and have been faithfully working the long work-out every other day with the short work out on alternate days a couple days a week. We are seeing GREAT results and are extremely pleased with how we're feeling.
It's very inspiring to see you and your partner on the video! I know there's hope for my tummy.
Susan Hall
Lauren,
I am 32 years old and I have been a gym rat and fanatic since I was 18 years old. My first love is for running and I tend to run five to six miles, four to five five days per week. Additionally, I have tried every other cardio workout available from Zumba to kickboxing and I hated them all. I have practiced every from of Yoga out there; I worked with a trainer on and off for a while...but nothing seemed to get my body to where I wanted it to be. I began doing kettlebell workouts at a local studio. I absolutely loved it!!!! However, because the hours offered at the studio did not coincide with my busy schedule, I purchased your video and WOW it put my workout at that studio to shame!!!!! I have to say that you are a complete inspiration. Your workout is so intense and motivating--I feel and see the results already--- in just a few weeks time. I always HATED weight training and I can not believe that I love a workout that involves weights!!!! To mix up my workout routine at home, I would love to order other workout videos if you have them available. Please, Please tell me that you have others or others in the works......
Thanks Again,
Teresa, Long Island, New York
As someone who doesn't enjoy treadmill or elliptical intervals, I love
how your workout really gets my heart pumping but also makes me feel like
my muscles are getting a good workout. The time flies by. I love how it's
structured, just when I think I can't go any further the 1 minute break
comes and I can catch my breath and get ready for the next couple of minutes.
I have a large collection of fitness dvds and a lots of weight and cardio
equipment at home (I get bored fast plus I'm no spring chicken) and I think
I've enjoyed this workout more than just about any of the other ones I
have. So thank you for that!
I hope you sell a ton and I hope you continue to make more (would have
loved to have your new one back when I was pregnant and working out). I
also liked that there wasn't a room full of people hooting and hollering
and that you did the full workout yourself (the woman that is with you...I'm
sorry, I don't remember her name...is also very motivating. I'm almost
her age and she looks amazing.) As someone who is struggling with a middle-aged
metabolism, I hope that I am emailing you in a couple of months because
I am finally getting my "old" body back thanks to your workouts!!!
Linda Wagner, Mansfield, MA
Lauren, I purchased your DVD through Dragondoor, and just wanted to drop you a quick note. I really love it, and as a beginner to the Kettlebell world, your DVD has been super challenging yet easy to follow. I love your straight forward style. I have been using weights almost all my life, (started at 12) and I'm 42. I have also always been active, (hiking, biking, running, rollerblading etc.) my whole life as well. I have had a rough time with my health the last 4 years. I am a personal trainer certified since '99 with ACE, but not a practicing one, for the time being. I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism a couple of years ago, which took a couple of years to even find that out, then it has been an uphill battle just to find the right dose of Synthroid. I was one of those people who has always been a healthy lifestyle type, and lean all my life, until this happened. I have since struggled with self-confidence issues. My doc thinks my thyroid started failing due to all the stress I was under a few years back(due to caring for my little mama, who was terminally ill, and then a new baby). Anyway, I really think the Kettlebell training, along with the right dose of Synthroid, is finally helping me work my way back to leanness. Your instruction has been the key for me. I tried Pavel's DVD first, and obviously he is awesome, but I had trouble following, due to my inexperience. When I got your DVD, I was so happy I was able to follow, yet it is still super challenging! Thanks much, I'll certainly steer everyone I know in your direction, for Kettlebell in home training! Have a great day, sweetie.
Sincerely,
Jeanna Thompson
Hi Lauren
I bought your dvd a month back and love it!. It has certainly started to shift the last few pounds post baby.Its very quick to come off now! ITs making me lose my love of running because the dvd is more interesting! I've just bought the pregnancy baby bells one to have for when i have my second. Is another dvd due out soon too?
Yours Lindsey Hadfield, Great Britain
Lauren,
I have never emailed an exercise instructor before until now. Your new
DVD, The Ultimate Body Sculpt and Conditioning with Kettlebells is the
best workout I've ever done. I've used The Firm (original series, the Step,
Turbo Jam and none of them compare to yours. This is the most efficient
form of exercise I have ever experienced. I am a busy professional and
do not have time for 1 & 1/2
hours of exercise, but I can manage 40 minutes or 15 minutes if I'm really
pressed for time. I have been using your DVD consistently for about 3 weeks
now and I'm already noticing subtle changes in my body. I plan to keep
at it and also clean up my eating habits.
Thanks for sharing your kettlebell knowledge with us.
Sincerely,
Leah Rosser
Lauren,
My sister and I purchased your "Ultimate" workout recently and
we absolutely love it! We'd tried other kettlebell videos this year but
yours is simply the best. I feel so much better and I feel myself getting
stronger each day. I hope you will consider making another video for all
exercisers when you get the opportunity.
Take care,
--Anita Slater, Alabama
