Machines vs Kettlebells -- A No Brainer

Machines are bolted down, creating an artificial stabilizer, which means YOU do not have to stabilize the weight.

Kettlebells allow a 3 dimensional movement to take place at all times, strengthening and conditioning ALL associated muscles (Prime, stabilizers, and neutralizers).
.............
Machines use a fixed axis of motion, leading to the De- Conditioning of your joint stabilizers and neutralizers.

Kettlebells are portable
.........
Machines only train your body in one or 2 dimensions.

Kettlebells have unlimited potential for movement in any direction.
.........
Machines require minimal nervous system activation.

Kettlebells maximally activate your nervous system due to the dynamic nature of the exercises.
..........
Machines can potentially cause muscle imbalances, as co-contraction of other muscles is not encouraged due to lack of stabilizer function.

Kettlebells can activate dormant or injured muscles due to the incredible stabilizing effect the movements have on the joints and muscles of the body.
