What Kettlebell weight to use?
This obviously depends on current Kettlebell technique and also Current Strength & Conditioning level. Below is a guideline of weights than I recommend for current level.
If you are able to conduct the session with ease then the Kettlebell is too light, so therefore increase the weight. If you are really struggling in the lower reps, then KB is too light.
Beginner | intermediate | advanced | beast |
10/12kg | 12kg/16kg | 16kg/20kg | 20kg/24kg |
