Does anyone have kettlebells?

[Dial_tone]

I want to get 1-2 for home use when i can't get to the gym. I can't decide what weight to start off with. I've been simulating kettlebells by holding two 15 lb dumbbells together. The weight is about right for now, maybe a bit light once I get the movement down. I'm thinking a KB might be easier to swing though so maybe I should go 40.

You are aware of what they say about people who use kettle bells, right?

Wulfgar has them and has used them. Let's see if he'll comment.

They have them at my SO's gym. I like using them for snatches and pushups. The ones they have are just metal. I've seen some that are coated with plastic.

You can really get your heart rate up with those things. I found some nice ones at Sports Authority.

Yeah, once you get used to them and stop banging your wrists with them they're nice to work with.

I find the 40 up to 80 are perfect,especially when super setting.
