If you are trying to lose weight, workout is not the key answer either. It is eating at a deficit. Burn more calories than you consume and you will lose weight.

Are you doing it just to try something knew? If so just go to the gym and try the kettle bells there. You don't want to buy it and have it sitting around.
Not really any goals in particular - maybe get my bodyfat % down a bit. I'm 5'10", 155 lbs. / 15% body fat. I do P90x 6 days a week, eat well (including protein shakes & veg / fruit smoothies every day). It's more just to give me something to do while I'm watching the idiot box. I do mess around with my medicine balls, want something to supplement that. Just hard for me to sit still so I figure I might as well workout while I'm watching TV. My gym is at my office & that's where I usually work out. Figured standing there doing kettle bell swings while watching Modern Family would be fun...
