@is2017overyet 💯 3-4x ~30 minutes per week. Do mostly swings, clean and press/jerk, squat, snatch and getups. Adding a second kB or a heavier one down the line would be ideal. If the 20kg feels too light, do more reps before switching hands or setting the bell down.

@eileentee The most important thing is that you find something that you'll keep showing up for. I'd suggest you focus on a few goals. Get stronger so you can be more active easier. Improve your heart and lung health / work capacity. Lose weight. For goal one you should aim for 3-4 strength...

@hemanthbadda Afaik breast size won't be impacted by muscle growth. Breast size is impacted by body fat % and genetics. So go ahead and lift but make sure you keep eating.

@ouznini If budget is most important, get the 20kg. It might be too heavy at first for some movements, but you can train around that. For example, if one hand swings are too difficult, just do two hand swings. You'll want to work up to being able to press it overhead. If it's too difficult...

@curiousmel For esthetics it might be worth adding in floor presses, glute bridge floor press and pushups. Diamond pushups on the kettlebell are another good option.

@reformedguy Can you start doing 30 minute walks at lunch every workday? That would be a great start. Try to add in 20-30 minute strength training 3x per week also once the walking is a habit. Focus on your diet and if you follow these three things you should achieve your goals by December...

@samuelperla If your body composition is changing in a good way, I'd say stop weighing yourself and keep doing what you're doing. Often we find something that works and for some reason make changes. Just keep at it.

@yangum Simple and Sinister is intended to be ran along with other programs. I'd say go with S&S and your 3 day a week calisthenics and see how you feel. Also go get a heavier bell 😜

@itscw Yeah, I'm pretty fit and I kinda fear the stair master. Same trick as running long distance though. Go as slow as you need to to keep going. Go too quick and you burn out. Don't burn out!

@itscw Start small and slow and build up. Maybe for your first workout just do 5 minutes at a slowish pace. Second workout, 6 minutes. Third, 7 minutes. Etc If you're getting gassed after just a minute or two, slow way down. Find a baseline that you can do that feels like you put it...

@confusedchristiangirl0512 I think you'll adjust to double bell swings pretty quickly and find that the benefits double bells give you overall are well worth the compromise. But if you're really really into two hand swings, cast iron are better for that one movement.

@goldenangeleyes23 Get a kettlebell and do kettlebell swings. Or get a barbell and do deadlifts

@mr_loevinger I'm currently running the Strong First Fighter Pull-up program while doing Dry Fighting Weight https://www.strongfirst.com/the-fighter-pullup-program-revisited/ https://www.strongfirst.com/dry-fighting-weight/ It really doesn't feel like too much. I'm sure you could do S&S...

@goodtoseeya I really like Mark Wildman's content. For starting out, consider these videos: Quite simple but will be effective if done consistently. These are mostly kettlebell centric activities but you could do them with a dumbbell or really any kind of weight.

@goodtoseeya My knees used to hurt and I found strength training fixed them. Not having enough muscle around the joints can result in pain. It's worth consulting a medical professional of course, but I'd still recommend strength training. You'll need more than once per week to see a...

@goodtoseeya I'd suggest looking into strength training. It might help your knee pain. Box squats and possibly dumbbell deadlifts. Lots of resources online. Bodyweight squats are probably a good place to start but for deadlifts you'll want them weighted.
