Delaine got her RKC Level 2 certification in June of 2008 and in March 2010 was promoted to RKC Team Leader by Chief Instructor Pavel Tsatsouline. She is excited to continue to use her experience and expertise to spread kettlebell training and its benefits through the Southeast.

“Fast forward and I am living in San Diego, working 55 hours a week and trying to balance life and job that I didn’t like at all. Needless to say, no matter how much I rearranged my schedule, I didn’t have the 12 hours that I was used to spending at the gym anymore. That is when I heard a local radio station talk about a gym called Iron Core that used these things called ‘kettlebells.’ According to the people interviewed, kettlebells dramatically decreased your time in the gym since the workouts were cardio, strength and flexibility all at the same time. It was too good to be true. I had to check it out for myself.

“So, I went down on a Saturday morning for a ‘trial class’ and was amazed at what I discovered. The workout was intense and very different from what I was used to. It was some serious cardio without the boredom of the ‘hamster wheel’ (AKA the treadmill) and strength training without the monotony of isolated repetitions such as bicep curls. It was strength stretching without the endless poses of yoga. The workout was not only comprehensive and intense, but it was a lot of fun!

“I went from going to the gym 12 times a week, to taking three 45 minute classes, and yet somehow I found my strength and body composition improving. I wasn’t getting those bulky, beefy muscles that you would think would accompany strength gains, but was getting long, lean lines and definition – all while spending 1/3 of the time in the gym!

“I knew within a month that I wanted to be certified to teach and be able to share kettlebells with others. So, I opened Condition Kettlebell Gym in October 2007 and now started this website to help you give kettlebells a try. You, too, can find a challenging workout that is also exciting and fun.”
