Kettlebells In Iraq

Often people email me and tell me about the success they have achieved with Kettlebells The Iron Core Way. Naturally, I love to get such emails. I was particularly touched however, when I received the following email from Army Staff Sergeant Matt Schuldt who is stationed in Mosul, Iraq as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

"Sarah, I want to thank you so much for shedding a new light on fitness and for teaming up with GoFit to create such a great line of fitness products. Not only are you helping people get into shape and stay in shape in the U.S., but you are also helping myself and my friends here in Iraq maintain a level of high fitness so we can do our jobs on a daily basis. Thank you so much and keep up the good work!"

Needless to say, this email touched me on many different levels. Of course it is wonderful to hear about how people have lost weight, gotten stronger and gained confidence with the Iron Core program, but to realize that our kettlebell program actually is helping our soldiers to do their jobs — which is to protect us — was humbling and exciting!

Matt and I corresponded a couple more times from that first email and I was informed his unit were all sharing one kettlebell and one video! So, I first got on the phone and called GoFIt and asked if they could send a set of kettlebells to the troops — of course they agreed without hesitation. They also sent over a set of Kettlebells The Iron Core Way and Kettlebell Express DVDs. I also wanted them to experience what an Iron Core class was like, so I sent them all of our instructors downloadable DVDs and outfitted each of them with our camo Iron Core t-shirts. The best part of the story is that the troops received both packages on Christmas Eve — that completed my holiday! I continue to correspond with Matt and just sent over Os's new Strength and Progression series of DVDs. I am sure you will agree that these challenging workouts will keep the troops interested and will continue helping them reach the level of fitness they need for their jobs.
