    The Big Five Workout (Kettlebell Variant)

    @ant0099 @ant0099 my only difficulty for the Double Snatch is that that I only have three kettlebells of increasing weight (16kg, 24kg, and 32kg). So I can't do double-arm movements. Question: Are a left-hand side single snatch and a right-hand side single snatch a reasonable alternative?

    The Big Five Workout (Kettlebell Variant)

    @bananapitt Excellent response! Exactly what I am looking for. I also love certain specific movements that are by their nature not adapted to this "super-slow" HIIT protocol. The Kettlebell Swing and the Turkish Get-Up (TGU) being my personal favourites. For this reason, I will "supplement"...

    The Big Five Workout (Kettlebell Variant)

    The five exercises of bench press, deadlift, squat, shoulder press and pull-up (or alternatively lat. pull-down) are commonly known as the Big 5 of strength training. What would you recommend as the kettlebell variant for these 5 movements? Note #1: I have three (3) kettlebells. A 16kg, 24kg...
