Introduction: Although exercise benefits health, women have high levels of physical inactivity. Lack of time and negative affective responses to exercise can be barriers to adherence to training programs for this population. Thus, studies must investigate the affective responses (ARs) resulting from short-duration exercise protocols. In this sense, high-intensity kettlebell training can be an interesting strategy. Objective: This study aimed to characterize acute and chronic affective responses of young women during a high-intensity kettlebell training program. Methods: Eleven volunteers (aged 25 ± 3 years) participated for ten weeks in high-intensity kettlebell training (3x per week). The program was applied using a familiarization period, followed by three phases using swing and squat exercises. Results: No significant differences were observed when comparing the affective responses obtained pre-session with the measurements at 5, 10 and 20 min post-session in the acute phase (p > 0.05). Still, no significant differences were observed over the ten weeks of training (Pre = 2.13 ± 0.26 / 5 min = 1.92 ± 0.42 / 10 min = 1.89 ± 0.43 / 20 min = 1.93 ± 0.44) (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The high-intensity kettlebell training program with progressive and individualized load increases can maintain positive affective responses in the acute phase and after ten weeks of training.
