kettlebell

Looking for advice on my Long Cycle (sport style) technique. this is really only the fourth or fifth time I have tried it and I know I am still getting a lot of hard style bleeding in. This is after a hard full body work out of sandbags, ABCS, calisthenics, and mace work, and even then I feel...

I just completed sinister with the 32kg bell. Do you guys think it's a reasonable idea for me to do the 10,000 swing challenge with a 16 kg bell? I plan to stick with it throughout the challenge to avoid injuries. Has anyone done it?

I know it might sound like a dumb question to ask but… Do you guys re-clean the bells when you clean and press or just do 1 clean and press accdg to the ladder count? And what is the difference of re-cleaning and only cleaning once?

Hello everyone! The more I read about the right weight for my first kettlebell(s), the more uncertain I become. That's why I'd rather ask for individual advice here. About me: I am 1.79m and weight 80kg. After a very long absence from sport, I have now started exercising again and am looking...

I really enjoy doing double cleans, but find it’s normally only used in workouts as a means to an end - C&P, C&J, getting to rack etc. Is there any clean-dominant workouts that I could look to do? Currently 3 weeks into King-sized killer and the pure volume of snatches is leading me to look...

Are there any women out there who have tried S&S? What kind of strength or aesthetic changes did you experience?

Ao, I don’r know if that name exists but I called it today. Double 16kg cleans, press, rack squat and push ups then 4 21kg TGU. 5x 4. After a week off due to ahorrific sinus infection I wanted to just blast something out. I had no idea it was going to torch my quads like this. Holy snikes. I...

33 year old female. Kettlebells are THE exercise that make me happy. However, I’ve always had stiff hands in the mornings (pre-kettlebells) and a few months ago hurt my hands at work and stopped KB for ~8 weeks. Dad told me he has always had stiff hands in the mornings and it’s never gotten...

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...

While I’m a former SFG, I’m also a physical therapist and kettlebells have become a staple to my training. I had various injuries over my 30+ years of training and feel very healthy and solid, although I will need surgery to correct a hip deformity in the next month so I can avoid a total...

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...
