Go easy, give your muscles a day to regrow the damage. Building muscle goes like this: a workout makes little injuries in your muscles which trigger new growth adding a bit more muscle each time but you need to give them a day off to heal and grow those new muscle cells.

I am so getting some of these kettlebells. They aren't as popular here in the UK but I am hearing more and more about them. I suppose you need a dvd or something to show you how to use them?
Talking of aching muscles, I did a 3 mile walk on Friday and Im STILL feeling the pain. How walking can hurt your shoulders AND backside I don't know. May have to look at my technique LOL

They have kettle balls at the gym. I've been watching how people use them. interesting as everyone seems to use them differently.

Lisaappleton, there are many free exercise workouts on youtube. The one I just did was on youtube search "fitnessblender kettlebell". This was referred to me by thickgurl and its a nice workout, not too difficult, but the squats... You will feel them the next day! Especially if you go nice and low so you can feel your thigh muscles shaking! I want to look around youtube and find some other challenging workouts with kettlebells.... Maybe one with music or more upbeat, and a countdown clock so I can know how much long I have to endure the torture!
