@nativemainer This, if you look at photos of Joe Rogan when he was in his 20s, he was already jacked. So you can’t ascribe his physique to KBs

@wethefreepeople Weight is weight

@guilvenbalhin1212 Great job starting! Gaining weight is largely down to diet. What worked for me was adding in more eggs, oatmeal, protein shakes, and PB&J sandwiches. But just eat more, whatever helps you get there!

Hey everyone, I wanted to share my experience with Simple & Sinister. I know there are many writeups on this program, but I wanted to reflect on my progress with kettlebells over the last year and a half, and S&S is the program that got me into KB training. BACKGROUND At the start of this...

@mary157 That’s how I am doing it now, doing pressing focused programs and then adding in some sets of FS after. As for getting your legs stronger, barbell squats got me to a good level first. I started KBs being able to squat 3 plates for reps, and I don’t really think KBs can fully replace...

@curiousmel Thanks, I have tried the ABC before, and yeah my presses gave out before my legs felt tired. Maybe I’ll keep pushing my presses first and then try to add this into the mix

Hey everyone, I have noticed that many KB enthusiasts love programs that combine FS and C&P. I have never had success with these programs because of how much stronger my squats are compared to my press. I can FS double 32s for 5 reps easily, but I can only press double 32s for 2 reps. I have...

@drschools I have some of the same issue. What has worked for me is using variety days to introduce whatever shiny thing I want. So pick a standard and stick to it, make it something doable and then add in some variety days where you can chase shiny things.
