  • I've just ordered a 24kg kettlebell... I am now wondering if it will be to light or to heavy for me.... Is there an easy way to work out what your KB swing weight would be based on my Pre-C19 gym stats?

    I have v. limited space so I really dont want to have to have to many of them lying about. Right now im making do with a single pair of 12kg DBs. So i thought I'd dbl it. But i am only guessing.

  • I think 24kg is the recommended for an adult male with experience. I have a 28kg and I kinda regret it - although that's partially because I just find it fucking boring. I think I'd enjoy a 20 or 24kg more as I'd be able to do more continuous workouts.

  • That depends on your aim I suppose. If you can do 3 X 5 with good form then it's not too heavy I suppose. But if that is your limit then you'll struggle to build strength endurance.

  • I have 8, 12 and 24 kg. I like having the 24 for swings, snatch and rows, but I also wish I had something in between for some exercises like overhead press and curls.
    Wouldn’t need them in 2 kg intervals just something in the middle but I’ve given up trying to find one. Sold out everywhere and sky high prices secondhand.

    Now that you have a 24kg you can do the Secret Service Snatch Test. ;)
