Description:

Getting into kettlebell training? One of the 1st questions is what size to get. Since you sling these things around with momentum, it may be less than what you are used to with dumbbells. Here's a quick guide to help you pick the right size kettlebell.

I'm female and yet use a 16kg. I mean, he says most women start with an 8kg. That seems light to me.

Regardless of what he started for recommendations, it was an informational video. Helped me decide on choosing the 24kg for my first bell based on my experience!!!

Great video! Why people would be petty enough to complain about the narrator speaking to 'women so soon' is beyond me...

I traditionally prefer to stay out gender debate; however, in this case I think you're missing the bell, so to speak. The governing reason for the sudden start with women has to do with the order of sizes of the kettlebell. If you start with the lowest kettlebell first the likelihood of it being a women or a kid is high.

Why not refer to women so soon? I work out with kettlebells a lot and I'm a woman. Patience is a virtue. :)

Why does he start referring to the women so soon? He needs someone to write his script. If I didn't understand the motivation, I would've quit watching, since he singled out instructions for women so soon. I'm a man.

That's incredible. I get my Master of Sport in Kettlebell in Soviet Union. I made it in my military in 1980 being Master of Sport in Acro. What a wonderful sport. The most important: it's not just isolated exercise for one particular group of muscles, it's a complex involving all body for this kind of lifting or pulling. Or punching. Or ripping. Or breaking. That's why Russian ultimate fighters and force are using them for workout. And they are the best.

Thanks. Yep, you'll get a lot of mileage out of those 16's. And, you'll still have lots of uses for them once you move up to a larger bell. When you are ready to move up, I'd suggest going for the 24kg. It's more substantial than moving up to the 20kg and that creates a really cool effect... you will leap forward in strength very quickly.

Great stuff. I am a regular gym guy, pushing my mid 20's. I have started off with 2 16Kg KettleBells. I feel they are a great start. I will go heavier, but 16Kg (or lighter) will still be effective for certain workouts. GREAT VIDEO "aosjeff"
