pistol w kettleI love to challenge myself by attempting various feats of strength. I also love the pistol squat–it’s one of my favorite exercises and I’m always looking for different ways to make it challenging.

In this video segement, I attempt a pistol squat with a 40 lb. kettlebell–and manage to get off two reps! I guess next time I gotta go heavier!!!

      Well, kettle bell is indeed a great tool for workout and
      exercising; I like the way you do your workout. With that way I think we can
      work on our lower body muscle and maintain the balance of workout, this is a
      very helpful video and indeed very resourceful.
