Hello, Richard here from Sprung Gym Flooring. I’ve spent years helping fitness enthusiasts (and gym owners) create safe and effective training spaces, and one thing I’ve learned is that a solid kettlebell workout can transform any fitness routine. But before you start swinging, remember: a reliable gym floor is your best friend — no one wants to crack a tile (or a wrist) mid-workout! With that in mind, let’s dive into my personal picks for the top 10 kettlebell workouts on YouTube. These videos are led by trainers I trust and admire, and each routine offers something a bit different to keep you motivated and protected.
1. Mastering the Basics: Kettlebell 101 with Onnit
If you’re new to kettlebells, Onnit’s Kettlebell Basics for Beginners is the perfect launchpad. They cover foundational techniques like the proper swing and grip, focusing on safety and form. I always say, start slow and steady — it’s easier to build good habits than to fix bad ones!

5. Flow & Flexibility: Kettlebell Flow Routine by Steph Rose
Steph’s kettlebell flow routine helps you move gracefully through each exercise, improving mobility and balance. I often recommend pairing flows like this with durable, non-slip gym flooring — you need a solid foundation when you’re shifting around with a weighted bell.

Another gem from Juice & Toya, this series lets you grow your strength session by session. Perfect for anyone wanting to handle heavier kettlebells safely. Remember to check the weight limits of your flooring if you’re training with bigger bells — or just talk to us at Sprung Gym Flooring if you need advice on heavy-duty surfaces.

7. Targeted Fat Loss: Kettlebell Workouts by Tabata Songs
Ready to ramp up calorie burn? Tabata Songs pairs high-intensity intervals with killer beats to keep you pumped. One piece of advice: when you’re doing fast, repetitive swings, consider a shock-absorbing floor. Kettlebells can bounce unexpectedly if you drop them — and trust me, you don’t want any surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions
Kettlebell Workouts FAQ
Q1. What weight kettlebell should I start with?
A1. Most beginners find 8–12 kg (18–26 lbs) manageable. However, choose a weight that challenges you without compromising your form. Focus on controlling the motion, especially as you swing.
Q2. How often should I do kettlebell workouts?
A2. Many fitness experts suggest 2–3 kettlebell sessions per week for balanced strength and endurance. Be sure to allow your muscles time to recover.
Q3. Do I really need special gym flooring for kettlebell training?
A3. While it’s not mandatory, a dedicated gym floor greatly reduces impact on joints and protects your space if you drop the bell. This can save you from costly floor repairs (and injuries) in the long run.
Q4. Can kettlebell workouts help with weight loss?
A4. Absolutely! Kettlebell workouts are notorious for torching calories while building lean muscle. The continuous motion of swings, cleans, and presses keeps your heart rate up for an efficient fat-burning session.
