    Is it worthwhile upgrading?

    Hi folks, I am thinking about buying a pair of e-coat bells from Rogue. People here seem to really like them. I have a few of these vinyl coated bells and I’ve made good use of them: https://treadmillfactory.ca/collections/vinyl-coated But I don’t have a matched pair yet; I’m intrigued by the...

    Kettlebells and longevity

    I was listening to Tim Ferriss' podcast with Peter Attia, who is very much into longevity, and he was talking about several matters that have connections to Pavel's and Dan John's work and kettlebells. How intra-abdominal pressure actually can lengthen the spine (or fight compression), which is...

    Kettlebells with Calisthenics and Running

    Hi, I have been consistent for 2 months with calisthenics (full body workout M, W, F) and running (T, T, S). Before that I was training with Kettlebells for around 3 months. But since calisthenics started, I was barely working with kettlebells ( may be once a week). I was wondering...

    Minimalist workout

    Having worked with kettlebells for five years, I was looking for a minimalist workout that would allow me to achieve some additional muscle hypertrophy. Currently, my workout consists of 10 sets of two exercises per set, 25 reps of H2H Swings with a 32Kg kettlebell and 25 reps of One Hand...

    King sized killer phase 2 slow progress

    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...

    Apply Giant 3.0 to pullups and dips

    Looking to simplify my training completely for around 2 months. Anybody apply Geoff's giant 3.0 programming to other compound lifts? I'm looking to simplify my training so will only be doing compound exercises and no isolation work. I plan to superset opposing movements e.g horizontal pressing...

    Can I get fit with only minimal outside gym?

    I (42M) had to move home temporarily to take care of my elderly parents. I’ll be here for about 6 months, in an isolated town, so I decided I’d really try to improve my fitness, in that time. The problem is the nearest gym is 45 minutes away. I was thinking about using the gym only once a week...

    (Yet another) Post-bastardized DFW wrap-up

    Hey all, I know these type of threads are hashed out a lot, but I just wrapped up a run through of DFW last night and I wanted to give my thoughts and run down on what I did. First off - I started with 24kg being a 3-4RM for me (3 left, 4 right). I only have a single 24kg bell so I did all of...

    List of Kettlebell Strength Standards Using StrengthLevel

    Hey all, I've had great difficulty finding a set of consistent strength standards for kettlebells since I have begun training with them. I generally use a website called strengthlevel.com as a reference point for a given exercise, but they currently lack any kettlebell exercises. However...

    Muscle knots and tightness

    I am currently doing S&S at 30kg 2x a week and DFW 16kg 2x week. DFW I started with single bell since I couldn't do both at same time, but after about 6 weeks I can do doubles. My goal is GPP, with 3 young kids, I'll be happy to get to Simple and maintain it for life, and get to either 20kg or...

    What was YOUR pathway to pressing double 32s?

    From beginning to end, what was your pathway to pressing the double 32s? (Or any other heavy pair). What program/s did you follow? How strong were you when you started? How long did it take? Pressing the 32s is my current life mission - hence my survey of this amazing sub. I'm currently on...

    I don't understand S&S strength standards

    Basically it is: 32kg which is "simple" and 48kg which is "sinister". So just numbers without taking your own weight and height into account? How can that be realistic ? Age could count too. I'm 171cm/5'7 and 63kg/137lbs, 35yo male, been training KB for a few months, started with 12kg and I...

    The Kneesovertoesguy

    What do you make of his technique and arguments for going with the knees over the toes? I searched and found this video where he performs a Deadlift with this technique. What are your thoughts? I came here doing a squat, knees over toes swing that is frowned upon and have now done two...
