I'm new to kettlebells so these cards are a small handy reference as well as workout tool. I don't suggest shuffling the cards and randonly doing exercises since you may overwork some body parts, but if you divide the cards between upper and lower exercises and THEN shuffle and random select cards/exercises, you'll get the best benefit. Definitely worth the investment.

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of the Original Fit Deck and I recently started doing Kettlebell workouts, so I thought this was going to be perfect.

The package came and had a big box of cards! So I opened the box and some of the "cards" are actually a cardboard insert that tells you that this box can hold more than one deck. (Which is lame in general and extra bad because the new cards are slightly smaller than original, so it can't hold the original deck.)
Then there's the 6 page "insert" telling you about the other decks that they make.
Then 8 cards that tell you to consult your doctor before a workout and that you should stretch.

That leaves 18 cards that are actual workouts...

The cards themselves are not bad, but it is a fairly disappointing experience to open a giant pack of cards and end up with so few as actually usable. If the workouts sucked, this would have been a 1-star review, but I am going to generously say 3 stars because they content is good on those 18 cards.

See my more thorough review of the FitDeck products under the FitDeck Body Weight.

The FitDeck products are a terrific option for either starting a varied and interesting fitness program or invigorating an old one.

I own several of these decks and am thoroughly satisfied. The Kettlebell variety is a good addition to the Body Weight deck. This Booster deck contains 18 cards which limits the variety and depth of the Kettlebell exercises. There are so many more exercises that could have been added to make this deck more robust and balanced which tends to emphasize lower body and core fitness.

That said, FitDeck Booster packs add variety to the Body Weight cards and are a fantastic value. Recommended.

I have fitdeck kettlebell, bodyweight, resistance tube, dumbbells, BOSU, CORE, and medicine ball.
I use the bodyweight, core, and resistance band for traveling.
Kettlebell is great for short workouts!
If you have enough sets you will notice some very similar exercises in the different sets.
I love this concept, only wish they had more exercises in the smaller sets as they don't hit all the
exercises they could. I use the extra cards (stretch and instructions) by writing new exercises
on a sticker and covering up the old info.

The size of a deck of cards; not functional if you want to put them on the wall or look at while exercising.
