just a post

Hi hope everyone is good, great to see all the video posts of people doing their training. Hoping to get some guidance, I’ve been doing bodyweight exercises 4x20 reps x 7 exercises and bicep curls for about 3-4years but want to move to now start using weights. I’m considering switching to...

I spent the last couple months doing the Giant, and before that, a few rounds of DFW. My first workout after testing my new 10RM for double c&p, I decided to just do swings and push-ups. Man, push-ups had me sore for days. My next workout I decided to start practicing the snatch as I’d never...

Hi all, I just purchased Kettlebell Hard, along with Kettle Express Reloaded. The program for the Giant in KER is written for a single KB, but are there any differences from the Giant as published as a double bell program? E.g. recommended KB weight(s), sets, reps, rest times ? Or can I just...

Some of you may have heard of Josh Bryant, coach and author of Jailhouse Strong, amongst many other titles. Jailhouse Strong, as the name suggests, dives into methods used by inmates to stay fit and gain strength with minimal equipment. One of the methods he discussed is the “Juarez Valley...

So I started doing kettlebells last year but my 12 year old son is interested in working out with me, appears to be safe and encouraged for kids to some form strength and conditioning training, my question is what would you consider good starting weight I'm thinking 6-8kg maybe ?

I just wanted to say that I have found a new love - the clean and jerk - and a big thanks goes out to the sub for all the inspirational videos, posts, etc… about anything and everything that goes into that movement. My goal is to work up to a several minutes of LC, but right now I am just...

@rabbie77 Had a lot of fun hitting this one today! Gassed at end but it was a blast and I did it with double 53s! Just thought I’d drop by to say that!

I started out on Geoff Neuperts 12 week program with 12kg (a little light) and then completed The Giant 1.0 with 16kg Currently running 1.1 with the 16kg I just don't feel like I've gained ANY muscle considering I've been training for 6 months now I'm thinking of switching programs to...

Please don’t spoil the program. Initial thoughts… I’m enjoying it, having only read through part 1. It’s wordy, but entertaining. Im glad to help out Dan John; I’ve learned so much from his videos! I just finished W1D1 and had a blast - it was my first time doing a double kb workout! I’m so...

Hey y’all. Running DFW for the second time. The first run was a single 24 for the C&P and a single 32 for the FS. Just ran the first day again using double 24’s and I’m feeling pretty good. If anyone is reluctant to start DFW because of the recommended load, maybe try what I did. Doing 5 weeks...

Howdy y'all. Long time lurker, first time poster here. Seeing all your posts gives me so much motivation. This is genuinely the most wholesome community on Reddit. For reference, I'm 30M, 80 kg. After several rounds nds of DFW, ROP, and the wolf at 12 kg, I came back to S&S in May. Started at...

That’s all, it’s just a public service announcement. It’s price reduced down to $188

Got to 300 swings in a session much sooner than I thought I could :). Context: I'm 5' 8", 127lb, never did anything with weights before Feb 2022. My first form check was on March 17th, about two months ago. Started with S&S, realized I can barely do TGU with a 4kg dumb bell. But the swings...

Hopefully this allowed since it does have something to do with kettlebells. Was curious what music, playlists everyone likes when doing workouts. I personally like more punk inspired music. But some rap gets me going too. I'm also a gamer so there is a soundtrack that really hits for me. The...

4 weeks ago my C&P RM for 22kg was 5. I had been already working on C&P through other programs so my technique was decent already. 4 weeks later after finishing DFW (with plenty of other accessories), I’m testing my one handed C&P, hoping in add a few reps to my max, and landed 10 solid presses...

I’ve had a couple 30 lb bells and a 53 lb (true 24 kg) bell sitting in my garage forever. I have been boxing and lifting heavy for several years but haven’t lifted much lately because a lot of lame reasons. Shoulder has been acting up on account of too many days in a row at the heavy bag. But I...

Doing dfw spoiled me I think. I progress my reps weekly the whole time. Snatches progressed in phase 1 but I’ve hit a wall in phase 2. Phase 2 is the 3,6,9 then 3,6 then 3,6,9,12. I think it’s the cardio aspect that’s my main roadblock. I’m doing a fair amount of extras before each KSK...

For context I have a 20kg bell and a 32kg bell.Dont want to buy anymore bells in between. Has anyone managed to go straight from 20kg to 32kg for strict pressing? How long did it take? How much volume were you doing in the 20s? Thanks in advance

If iron has a density of 7.87g/cm3 (according to this website) then the volume of a 16kg kettlebell must be 2,033.04cm3, right? (Density x Volume = Mass) So let's say you want a kettlebell the size of a normal 16kg bell, but made out of something else. Here's what it would weigh! Brass . . ...
