  • 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.

  • 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 can do 3x5 swings no bother with the 28kg, was happy to smash out 100 swings in sets of 10. Just didn't find it enjoyable. I'd rather keep swinging it for 20 mins straight, or do sets of snatches and presses. I can snatch the 28kg, but wasn't motivated to put the hours in to get them to the point of being able to do 100 total reps etc.

    I just want some conditioning at home, not an entirely new skillset to develop.
