 * 1) How did it/will it impact the world?

There was interest in it a while back where it first came out a few centuries back, and is now again a very popular work out routine for all ages. It is a great work out that tones the whole body that also involves cardio, which is why I believe people are really interested in this work out.
 * 1) Why is there still interest in it today, or why will there continue to be interest in it?

I am interested in this topic because I myself am a fan of the kettle-bell work out. It is something I can do at home if I want to, and not have to go to the gym for a work out. You can do so many things with it, and it is not something you have to do for drastic amounts of time.
 * 1) Why are you interested in researching this topic?

I connect with this topic because I have done these work outs at home, at the gym, and even watched different dvd’s about it. **Resources** What resources do you think will be useful to you? Specific books? Series of books? Magazines? Periodicals? Interviews? Internet sites? Films? Other? Resources I think I will find useful are specific books and magazines all about kettle-bell workouts, internet sites with different facts and information about it will definitely help as well. Interviews from people who do the work outs or have would also be helpful, and just watching dvd’s or other videos on it to show the actual move of things for it would absolutely be useful too. **Topic Talk: Event, Issue, or Other Topic of Interest**

I work out at least three times a week, and I am also taking a fitness class here at school which involves me in learning how to teach certain types of fitness classes. **Resources** What resources do you think will be useful to you? Specific books? Series of books? Magazines? Periodicals? Interviews? Internet sites? Films? Other? I think certain magazines would be useful such as Men’s/Women’s health, and any other health related or exercise magazines. Interviews from certain people who work out on a daily basis, as well as people involved in sports. Internet sites will definitely be useful looking up certain facts and such about exercising, as well as different types of books. Another thing I think would be useful for this is work out tapes/dvds that show different types of work outs and how to do them and what they are all about; for a sort of visual aspect of it all.
