Hey guys! Pretty new to kettlebell exercising so i only own one kettlebell. I’m very much a minimalist when it comes to training so I want my workout to consist of two, max three, exercises. One of them is for sure the kettlebell swing (two handed atm due to me only owning one kettlebell) but...

Hi kettlebellers, I'm a 50y M who's been training consistently for a little over a year. I've generally been running a program for about 6-8 weeks before moving to a new program. I find that keeps things interesting and switching it up keeps any nagging injuries at bay. I'm not naturally very...

I did the 10.000 swings challenge. The key takeaways are in the TLDR, the longform review is below. (I’m not native English. But I tried) |TLDR| It’s hard. Especially on the grip. Depending on the strategy it’s mentally hard or boring. Choose one. You’ll improve your technique, grip and...

On October 23, 2021, I started structuring (and just as importantly, tracking) my KB workouts the way Mark Wildman suggested in his "Nerd Math" and "Tetris of Training" videos (all of which are conveniently compiled here by @fbgah). Here's how much I've progressed: October 2021 swings - 16kg...

I just finished doing 5x(1,2,3,4,5) ladders with the 32kg. My pressing program came from the Rite of Passage from Enter the Kettlebell. I have to say that program delivers. I have run through it twice now: once with the 28kg and once with the 32kg. Both times have helped me to find leakages in...

I'm a 36M who is currently simultaneously doing medical residency/research. I'm also a brown belt in judo and am also training for my black belt and need to compete next year at a club level. I train judo 1-3x week. I fit in KB/mace/club workouts 2-3x per week in-between depending on call...

Working on week nine of Nupert’s beta program and it’s a real butt kicker but I’m missing the extra movements like pull ups and lunges. Been through DFW Remix and 10m swing workout. My old stand by is the old BFW Recommended Routine…. Any suggestions for next or is it time to go back to mix...

Hi there,I'm curious what people advise for a kettlebell weight to start with at my specific activity level and interest. I'm a 5'5 woman, 121 lbs, and a runner who is just starting to get into more regular weight lifting (mostly to build up strength so I can better protect my knees and overall...

Man I’ve tried researching it an I get confused like fuck can I just get the numbers already? I may come off as slow for this but the whole “ladders 1,2,3,4(5)” does not help me understand how many C&P and front squats im supposed to do

Hi all, giving DFW a shot. I don't have two bells of the same size so I'm using a single: 16kg, which is a little light, but I can't even press the 24kg once with my non-dominant hand. Plan is to finish the program with a single as I save for one of those fancy adjustable bells, then try it with...

Who I am I'm 175 lbs. and in my thirties, no known health issues, used to training. My experience with kettlebells I've successfully completed Geoff's 12 week program a while ago with two 18 kg kettlebells. I wanted to do the same with 28 kgs, but it was too much, and couldn't return them, so...

I’m running ROP but I superset the C&P with a variety of functional mobility and mindfulness exercises. My current program: c&p 5-step ladder set 1 Change a diaper; fix an Xbox C&P 5-step ladder set 2 Clean up cat puke; break up a fight over Minecraft C&P 5-step ladder set 3 Get yelled...

I train with kettlebells so I can hike better. I have learned over the years that more muscles means more enjoyment when hiking. But I have noticed that kettlebells and barbells don't really train the forefoot very well. I really need to get a box and do step ups. They just seem so boring and I...
