Written by Jeff Martone Last updated on May 31, 2012

We are in our second week of workouts designed by Jeff Martone of Tactical Athlete. Jeff has been working with kettlebells since long before they were mainstream. In fact, he actually built his first one himself. Through his work with everyone from the military, to martial artists, to housewives, Jeff has created an effective training system. So, grab a kettlebell and give it a shot!

Four new workouts are posted each week, starting on Monday, and can be done on any day you have available. Make sure you warm up adequately before starting any of these workouts!

About Jeff Martone

Jeff Martone has been working with kettlebells since before they even existed in the United States. In fact, he made his first kettlebell himself using his blacksmithing skills. A lifelong athlete and military instructor, Jeff found kettlebells were the only successful tool in rehabbing his shoulder, knee, and back injuries. Despite being in his forties, he feels stronger than he did in his twenties.

Jeff has amassed a wide array of certifications over the last twenty years, from the first RKC certification, to multiple martial arts black belts, to numerous military and law enforcement credentials. Jeff is on staff at the U.S. Department of Energy National Training Center, teaches CrossFit kettlebell certifications, and runs a website, TacticalAthlete.com.
