- In this episode, Justin partners with Mike Salemi of Kettlebell Lifestyle to answer the Mind Pump audiences questions in regards to kettlebells. Below is our guide to getting started with choosing the perfect kettlebell for you. Most common questions we receive from our audience have to do with what weight kettlebell do you choose? This will vary with each individual but Mike Salemi recommends 3 weights for Men and Women specifically.
Men:
16kg // 20kg // 24kg
Women:
8kg // 12kg // 16kg
Many also ask if they should purchase and use one or two kettlebells?? Mike advises that you purchase 3 singles to get started in each weight and then progressing to doubles once you've mastered each of the single weights.

Bought this for my youngest to develop basic form for single hand kettlebell work. czcams.com/users/postUgkxtaDAl93XF8wxJhssTtjIFjzid82wglva It has a nice grip on it, just a little rough so it isn't slippery. I was doing a few rotator cuff exercises to test and worked well for those movements I'd been doing with a regular dumbbell. Cool thing you can do is hold it in your hand for door-knob turns to work the forearm and grip. Note: it's small, almost all handle, but that's what I expected given the weight. Smallest I've worked with before is 15lbs, so it was kind of funny to see the difference 10lbs makes.
Kilo all the way!
wtf is wrong using KG ? isn't it is international metric system ?
Yes, but us Americans like it our own way 🤷♂️
Kilometers are too small. We need miles to measure our waist sizes here. You wouldn’t understand.
Hahahaha the two answers are too funny to be true
@@Matt-vb7no Your way: by sticking with the English avoirdupois system of England?
It was first commonly used in the 13th century AD. By the 15th Century Henry VII authorized its use as a standard, and Queen Elizabeth I acted three times to enforce a common standard, thus establishing what became the Imperial system of weights and measures.
We English like it our own way and are glad you Americans like it too by adopting our traditional system of measure.
English = belonging to or relating to England, or its people.
British = belonging to or relating to the United Kingdom, or to its people (English, Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish) or its culture.
Great Britain = large (hence great) geographical island in the British Isles containing three small countries: England, Scotland, and Wales.
United Kingdom = country, the kingdom consisting of four smaller countries: England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.
Englishwoman = me.
Hope this helps.

My rule of thumb for my clients starting out, if they can only buy a 1 kettlebell I have them pick the heaviest bell that they can do a decent strict press with, and progress to doubles when they can press that weight 10 times per arm, and progress to the next weight when they can press the doubles for 10 reps. I don't teach overly technical movements like the snatch till they have progressed to a heavier bell than their first bell, so that they can use a lighter weight than they are using for their general strength and conditioning. I like to know that they have built some shoulder stability and have a good idea of where the bell is going to end up overhead when performing a snatch or other more technical ballistic movements. Same goes for something like a turkish get up or windmills where the angle of the load on the shoulder shifts during the exercise. Only time I have ever been hurt using kettlebells was with overly ambitious windmills, and 3 years later that same muscle still is the first to give issues during training.
I dig your rationale Francois, all very good points. Thank you for sharing!
Great video guys, wanted to make a small note that ALL of our bells are single piece casting. Seems like Mike had a question about the powder coats!
Thank you for clarifying that! You guys make the BEST bells around!
Kudos for the Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Chireetler Kettlebell Miracle Rule (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good exclusive guide for learning some amazing kettlebell challenge workouts minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 at last got cool results with it.
Ta Tchou ..:at least you recognize that you’re an intruder
Nice & informative. 👍🏼👍🏼
excellent thank you
I'm starting at a 20 pound bell and adding 5 pounds a month. July will be 25, August 30, etc. I only do 100 swings and 50 squat jumps 3 days a week. Eventually, I'll figure out what I wanna add after a month or so, but 100 and 50 is my limit right now, I'm out of breath after it's all done in like 3 minutes. I workout at home, down 60 pounds(230-170) since November last year doing keto, time to slowly add muscle.
Somehow you guys are consistently reading my mind ! PERFECT timing wow . . . thanks !
Wonderful David, happy to help!
Indian clubs are used to build or rehab wrist shoulder elbow joints by swinging them in circular motion. Large ones are used for core strength

EXACTLY THE QUESTIONS I WANTED TO ASK!
Just bought my first kettlebell,started with 12kilos cause i dont have experience and need to learn some proper technique..wll progress to 16 in few weeks..in general its a great piece of equipment,full body tool...great for workin out at home,in just 20min u can do lot of things and be in decent shape..highly recomended..but always start with 12 or 16 if u r man...ego can hurt u seriously..
Saint Man skip the 16 and go 18. You will appreciate the extra 2kgs in the long run.
I wanted to get back in shape after being inactive for three years. Basically i work sitting at a desk 10 hours a day and sit in my recliner at home the rest. So i started with a lighter 12kg REP Fitness kettlebell (26 pounds) for safety and to learn proper technique. I have 16kg, 20kb and 24kg bells on my amazon wishlist for purchase once i become more advanced overtime.
Same here bro, slow and steady, just researching to buy my 16kg and then beyond, stay hard brother
Does it make a difference on Turkish get up?
for most people that dont have the lower back trained, these numbers are way to high for a lot of new fitness people
Curious to know what are the wood things on the left side wall rack?
Those are wooden clubs (called Mugdar) of varying weights, used by traditional wrestlers in Indian subcontinent for upper body conditioning & strengthening.
You don't choose your kettlebell, it chooses you.
woah Easy Peasy, you gotta work on your sense of humor! He just jumped on an awesome-sounding quip :)
She came to me!! XD
The 16kg chose me about 8 months ago. Still heavy. But getting excited for 20kg
Good luck in finding competition kettlebells, sold out now every where.
Rogue and Kettlebell kings are one piece casts, no welded handles.
I’m a guy and I haven’t ever used kettlebells but I’m 155lbs and I’m 5’3 and I have big broad shoulders. I want to have definition in my arms and have strength. Where should I start? Thanks guys!
The video talk about 12-16 kgs ketlebell for a starter but you may buy also a 8kgs for some upper body exercises as clean and press,if you can not do these with a heavier ketlebell . There is this dvd that you can follow czcams.com/video/YOPl-bx6DQw/video.html
Which is better the competition kettlebell or the regular?
Andrew Tanczyk I've been swinging for 3 years. It depends on what exercises you're going to do, and how big your hands are. Off hand I can only really think of the cast iron being more comfortable for double handed swings, for almost every other kb exercise you'll use one hand - and for that the competition bell is alot more comfortable (and most of the kettlebell community agrees). But price is a factor!
If money isn't a issue, the competition ones are better, but you can find them only up to 106lbs. The handles are much better, so if you're doing snatches, your forearm can tire quickly with the non-competition ones, as they tend to have thicker and worse coated handles.
Regular for sure and heavy weight are bigger and have thicker handle and looks it more badass 💪
what shoe brand is that 5:57
Looks like vivobarefoot shoes
Awesome
48 kg
What if i can only pick one ?
16kg.. perfect all round.
The only kettlebells you need to avoid are plastic made ones. They tend to be too big for safely swinging between the legs, and the really cheap ones are badly molded together with edges that could rip the flesh off your hands.
I'm sure that the kettlebells made by kettlebell kings are superior to cast iron bells. But calling them 'competition' kettlebells is just a marketing ploy (scam). And there is a major disparity in price.
Here in the UK on Amazon; £36.99 for a neon coated cast iron kettlebell (20kg) compared to £69.99 for a (20kg) competition style bell.
So if money is no object; then go for the competition style kettlebell. But know the guy or gal using the cast iron bell is getting just as fit at nearly half the price, and with a kettlebell just as safe, sturdy and reliable.
Richard Boldbrooker lol. There is no "scam" with competition bells. They are overwhelmingly preferred for their grip shape comfort within the kettlebell community.
The "kettlebell community"? Awareness of kettlebells has been going on for about 3 decades in the west. Try 3 centuries in Russia. And I never saw a russian need a pansy-ass thrice-as-costly "competition bell" to set his muscles on fire.
choose the kettlebell having the weight you like or prefer to work out with.
im a guy i had to start with 25lbs cause of my back
Why are kettlebell weights so light?
Widespread weights for kettlebell reach 36 kg. Is not enough for you 2x36 kg ?
Because they are NOT perfectly balanced like dumbbells...pick up a kettlebell the same weight as what you curl on dumbbells and you see why they’re so “light”
@@ivanbukhoi638 Kettlebells go up to 90 kg that's pretty heavy
some of us use KG you know
The rest of the world you mean hihi
Nice indian clubs in the back ground
Ken Carey What are they used for? I’ve not seen them before.
@@realaussiemale567 You can swing them in circles above your head. Works the shoulders and forearms.Also there are other swinging exercises you can do for arms and core.
I don't understand pound I only know KG >_< , good thing he starts with kg. I'm a male and about to buy 12 but then I just watched a skinny girl uses 16kg lol and here 16 is also suggested so 16 it is.
Was that the right choice? Trying to decide between 12 and 16 kg.
@@beaconbus Yes 16kg is fine, it's used with 2 hands so each hand is 8 kg. It's too heavy for me for 1 hand, but that's what dumbell is for. If you have dumbells you can try and have a feel for deciding which one you're comfortable with.
@@T1k3mys0n thanks!
Their ankle mobility is ridiculous. Full squat entire video
Imperial metric system is so ridiculous. But we need to use it so the less open minded can follow.
What does one have to do with the other?
Watched till he was asked to switch to pounds
Boohoo cry me a river
@@khamzatchimaev5472 why would I?
Kg ! not pound lol
Dont kilo..pounds..what a gringo
But there is only 1 gender!
