Been browsing through some of the latest fitness books being offered and found some rather unique exercise, diet, exercise and bodybuilding titles for the new year. Of note: Check out these Best-Selling Fitness Books 2012to see what's high on peoples interests.

Interestingly, Kettlebell Training ranks high on the list. Kettlebells - Those balls of iron with a built-in handle aren't new. But modern fitness trainers and coaches are using them in new, novel and more effective ways to maximize the benefits of weight-training.

When one performs a kettlebell workout, it isn't just doing a single isolated move to engage one muscle group. Rather, think of it as "Muscle Multi-Tasking". For example, in a basic swing, you swing the kettlebell between your legs while lowering into a squat position. Then swing the kettlebell up to about shoulder or chin height as you move into a standing, upright position. After you perform this move a dozen times or more, you'll decidedly feel it - everywhere! It's one of the many reasons why modern fitness enthusiasts still love the kettlebell. Every major muscle group can get a workout at the same time. It’s just a far more efficient and a smarter use of your workout time than simply isolating muscle groups.
