Excellent video,I have 3 cast iron KBs, 6,10 and 16kg, I use them all in my workouts.its nice to have a bit of variation in the weights and speed.
I own Kettlebell Kings and just ordered a Pro Kettlebell Apollo 16 KG. Kettlebells for life!!
I have an adjustable comp kettlebell and I also have a cast iron one. I prefer cast iron. I found one brand that makes kettlebellkings just with a thinner handle
Thank you! Watching your videos for the last week helped me do the right thing, so today I’ve had my first training session with my own 12 kg kettlebell.
Gosh it was intense! 4 x 15 deadlifts, 4 x 15 double hand swings, and I was done for today. Out of breath, legs shaking, sweaty as hell. Wow.
Can’t wait to do more of it!
Great job! Thanks for sharing Arseniy! - Gregory
Thanks for the video.
Question. Is vinyl coated cement material also good?
Another thing with cast iron folks should look out for handle is welded on separately or if it's part of a single mold.
Thanks for sharing! Great point! - Gregory
In my opinion you should start with a cast-iron and then work your way into a Lebe Stark hollow
I went with Pro Kettlebell (USA) in 12/16/20 kgs, a pretty penny though good investment.
Wondering you thoughts on Pro Kettlebell or any of the brands that have a 4x concave surface vs. The traditional spherical shape. A video would be cool. Like I said Pro Kettlebell in USA was innovator and now I think Rogue and KBK are following up with similar concave design. Seems the future, no?
What are your thoughts on adjustable kettlebells?
Like the bells of steel adjustable competition kettlebell 12-32kg.
Greg- lots of companies have been making adjustable kettlebells in the competition size (Wolverson, Kettlebell Kings, Omnibell, Bells of Steel). As someone who has 3 "evergreen" weight (16, 20, 24kg), cast iron bells, I am thinking of getting an adjustable one instead of getting separate 12 28, 30 and 32kg bells to add to my collection.
I'd love to hear your review/comments on these bells. Thanks!
I'm not a fan of adjustables Mike. - Gregory
What about ajustible
Cast iron ones don't seem to be as identical to each other. Different bell, different load. Same stated weight.
Thanks for the in depth analysis! I've been swinging my Rogue competition kettlebells (I have 12kg+16kg), and like the comfort. Have you worked with any of the kettlebells with a contoured bell like ProKettlebell or Rogue?
You're welcome! I've heard a couple of practitioners use the ProKettlebells/ Rogue. Some of them mentioned, that if you don't hit the contoured spots perfectly, that it doesn't feel right. I myself haven't had any experience because I personally don't see a reasonable cause to use them. - Gregory
What about small hands?
Iron cast
Startet with Cast Iron Bells. Had almost all of the weights till 40kg. I think this was a mistake. Orderd yesterday two adjustable comp KBs in hope to be able to replace my Bells.
Report back on how the comps feel; as opposed to cast iron brother! - Gregory
What's the difference between normal flow and super flow? What you described in your vid on the subject sounds like... well, flow, the way it is described in psychological literature (feeling of enjoyment, loss of time and so on).
I can definitely see the benefit of hollow core bells as opposed to filler. Will you be working with retailers in different countries such as Sweden?
super flow vs normal 8:01 he also links to a video at the end going further into it
The video in the end dives deeper into the "Super Flow" concept; as Josh already mentioned in the reply. We're currently working with our local postal carrier to enable world wide shipping (so Sweden will be an option!). At first, we start small and fulfill orders by ourselves. Over time, this might change if the market responds well! - Gregory
In my gym we have both cast iron and competition style KB. I generally prefer competition KB but I find it more challenging to hold it on my chest for goblet squats. I've seen you get around this by holding the ball from the bottom instead of the handle, but when I tried it I didn't know how to bring the KB down when finished. Do you have any video explaining that transition?
Actually yesterday's story with the workout for strong women shows her doing this transition very clearly. Thanks!
Great to see it was helpful! - Gregory
Dear Gregory,
What would you recommend: buying a heavier kettlebell or buying the pair of the one I already have?
I have a 30 lbs kettlebell, swings, cleans and snatches are getting easier every week and I use it for strength for Muay Thai. There's other people in this space who have different answers to this question but you're my #1 guy when it comes to kettlebells, I'll love your opinion. Thank you
I would opt in for a heavier kettlebell first. With single hand exercises, you get a lot of unilateral movement which is great for hip strength and mid-section health. This is defintiely what you need in Muay Thai. Doubles are awesome as well, but they require a bit more skill and you're a bit more limitied with the range of (powerful) exercises. - Gregory
@@lebestark-official A heavier one it is! Thank you very much Gregory, I appreciate it 🙌
You're welcome! I'm honored by the fact that you consider us your Go-To source! - Gregory
Our man looks fine af ❤😅
What are your thoughts on adjustable competition kettlebells? I love mine because it saves space and it gives me 1kg jumps which is nice as I am an older athlete
I've heard great things about adjustables; I myself have no experience with them. As with everything, the more a product can do, the more effectiveness it has to sacrifice. - Gregory
@@lebestark-official I was worried about shaking or rattling of the plates inside the bell and also about the seam at the midline of the bell. I've been using mine almost daily for over 3 months neither concern has been any issue
@@lebestark-official BTW this channel and Mark Wildman are my favorite fitness channels
@@kevinlilly619does the adjustable kettlebell make any noise at all from the weights inside? I want to use it at night without waking anyone up
Is it possible that fitness comps may be a little bit safer for renegade rows (and maybe push-ups on the handles) than hollow core comps because their center of mass is closer to the base?
Renegades generally require heavier weights to be as safe as possible. - Gregory
@@lebestark-official Yeah, definitely. Kwella recommends them only from 16kg upward, if they are done the traditional way with the supporting hand on the handle, otherwise one should put the supporting hand through the window onto the bell. I was referring to the subtle difference between hollow cores and fitness comps of the same weight of course in this very special case.
Habe Johannes gefragt ob er auf einem Podcast dabei sein möchte. Leider noch nichts gehört. :-D Danke fürs Teilen Albrecht! - Gregory
I don’t know if it’s just the cast iron kettlebells they make in my country being shitty, but the cast iron powder coat shreds my hand if I do longer sets, it’s not a technique issue because my competition kettlebell smoother handles don’t cause the same problem, if you want to do high rep snatches and cleans definitely go competition/hollow core, if I could go back I would not buy cast iron.
That's a great point I forgot to mention! Thanks for sharing! - Gregory
I bought a round file to run along the upper angles of a coupl of cast irons I picked up recently (Dick’s Sporting Goods. Although I have found that Target and Walmart has very similar stuff. )
The changing hands on the fly in the upswing freaks me out. I absolutely do not want the swing a cast iron kettlebell into my knees.
You’ve stated that you prefer a single arm swing. Maybe five swing reps per set of one arm then the other.
The windows of the cast iron does not change hands on the fly comfortably. And so… apprehension about a fumbled pass heading for my leg.
The plastic ones are the best 👌👍
🤣😂
Just ordered mine! Thanks for saving me 12 minutes 👍🏾
😂
😂😂🤦🏻♂️
As far as grip goes is there any difference between cast Iron and steel?? Of course i mean without counting powder coated cast Iron
Don‘t understand the question
Which one gives you the better grip? The cast iron kettlebell or the competition kettlebell?
There are also some cast iron kettlebell with some special coating that makes the surface less smooth therefore giving you a better grip without using chalk, those are called powder coated. But considering just regular cast iron, (no coating) and competition kettlebell Is there any difference in grip?
Oh men I already buy the not bellshape type but its 20kgs and its heavy for me,what is your best advice for me sir?can I use this for my wokout?without getting injuries?
Hey Ike. Yes, you can still train with it but unfortunately it won't give you the same feedback. Maybe you can try to give it back? The one you've bought? This way (if possible) you can get your money back and buy a proper kettlebell. - Gregory
I thought it will good to buy because its heavy and cheap
Pretty good description of My first wife
I earned money for 3 months to buy kettlebell
This video isn't really accurate. I have used a 45 pound cast iron kettlebell at my former army unit which is better than the other two competiton kettlebell
If that's your personal experience, that's totally fine! They're more durable for sure, but less adequate for technique imo.
Is this a commercial?
Of course. All CZcams videos are some kind of commercial. - Gregory
