🔥 From Belle to You
Less Tryit - AI Retirement’s Gadget Guide
Hey friends — it’s your girl Bell Kettle, Channel 7’s resident wake-up call, hype squad, and human pre-workout shot.
I’m 60 years strong, swingin’ bells heavier than my excuses, and here to make sure you start every morning feeling powerful, capable, and just a little sweaty.
My goal? Get you moving, laughing, and pushing past whatever tried to slow you down yesterday. Stick with me, and we’ll “remove the tush” one rep at a time.
Let’s go!
🔥 Friday Feature Workout
“THE 3-MINUTE FIRESTORM” (Beginner Friendly!)
You’ve got 3 minutes today. Don’t tell me otherwise.
Here’s your no-nonsense, Bell-approved, metabolism-igniting mini workout:
⏱️ The Breakdown
60 seconds: Kettlebell Deadlift (light or moderate bell)
45 seconds: High Knees (knees UP, queens!)
45 seconds: Kettlebell Swings
30 seconds: Plank (YES, hold it—you’re built for this)
🔥 Why It Works
Activates your largest muscle groups
Creates an “afterburn” that lasts for hours
Boosts balance, power and metabolism
Helps “remove the tush” as Belle says 😉
💡 Pro Tip:
“Swing it like your ex is watching—and looking a LITTLE too impressed.”

🔥 Bell’s “Remove the Tush” Nutrition Tip

“Protein First, Carbs Second, Excuses Never.”
Before you head into the weekend, remember:
You can’t out-swing a donut… but you CAN swing hard enough to make the donut rethink its choices.
This week’s nutrition focus:
🍳 Build 20–30g of Protein Into Your Breakfast.
High-protein breakfasts reduce cravings + boost energy during morning workouts.
Great ideas:
Greek yogurt + berries
2 eggs + turkey sausage
Protein smoothie (Bell’s version: almond milk + banana + cinnamon + vanilla protein)
Here’s a great link to get more information on protein timing.
🔥 Product Spotlight: Bell’s Favorite Gear
Today’s Pick: Fingerless Gloves (GRIP IT / RIP IT Edition) - I never trains without these—especially in the cold or during high-rep swings.
✔️ Protects your hands
✔️ Helps grip heavier bells
✔️ Makes you FEEL stronger (Bell says confidence adds 5 lbs to every lift)
My recommendation for Bell-approved toughness is: Mechanix fingerless glove.s

Your Friday reminder:
“You don’t need perfect form, a perfect kitchen, a perfect plan, or a perfect life.
You need 10 seconds of courage, then ONE rep.
And then another.
And another.
And another until the weekend bows down to YOU.”
Take one fiery, powerful action today — even if it’s tiny.
Small reps = big change.

Go. Move. Swing. Remove the tush.
Look — this old garage of mine is full of gadgets that flopped, broke, or exploded (yes, really). But each failure taught me something better than any manual could. Here’s what I believe:
If it works for this old-timer, it’ll work for you.
Don’t overthink it. Sometimes just jumping in and experimenting gives better results than reading 10 specs sheets.
Mistakes make memories. Whether it’s a botched drill or a leaning bookshelf, heck — those stories become folklore.
So next time you’re staring at a gadget and thinking “nah,” ask yourself: what’s the worst that could happen? And then say it with me: “Let’s try it!”
