You want to actually become a man and acquire FUNCTIONAL STRENGTH? Now's the perfect time to get a KB and start training. Heavy KB swings will make a man out of you and improve your other lifts now that you're kicked out of your gym.
Kettlebell
Austin Harris
Ryder Phillips
kettlebells are just bad dumbbells
Mason Sanders
kettlebells are useless
Benjamin Harris
i already have functional strength from my job
dont need meme balls to improve that
Carter Hughes
>haha look at the handle, how am i suppose to bench that?
look everyone, i found a little boy. Don't tell me you can't stand on your two feet and press a weight above your head with one arm... Maybe you should stick to your hammer curls.
Asher Robinson
Fun fact: you can do kettlebell swings with, just mabye, a fucking dumbbell.
David Reyes
Or you could just, you know, overhead press a fucking barbell? And make twice the gains in both strength and size.
You really are a faggot OP.

>Heh, I don't need to prove myself. I already get a workout from sweeping up the shop!

Look at the facts
> its proven that doing kb Swings every day produces more hormones in body and gives better gains
>kettlebell are the easiest way to train fast muscle fibiers without getting injured
> they are the Best for shoulder strength and health
>get up is the Best full Body exercise you can do
> doing swings can get your Deadlift up
>great to train muscle endurence
> Best for core strength
>Best for training your legs without getting your back or knees injured
So in general:
> kettlebells are the Best for general strength and health
> if you add them to your gym training as accesory you will get more mass and strength and will be less likely to get injured
Eli Morgan
Exactly. If anyone wants to actually improve their barbell lifts while the gyms are closed, then doing kb training is the answer. Go find a fitness equipment place that's open and get a kb.
Josiah Hill
they're still just bad dumbbells bruv
Austin Perez
You think that because you've never done any kettlebell exercises. Try doing a swing with db and a kb and then tell which is better. It depends on what you're doing. You can say db's are just bad kb's if you're focused on doing exercises like swings. They're for a different purpose.
Oliver Parker
Why use them when I've already swallowed the calisthenicspill?
Matthew Peterson
I was gonna get one but target didn't have any. Probably was the only time I'd ever be desperate enough to buy one, oh well, I'll stick to my dumbbell routine and pull ups.
Isaiah Murphy
>He uses LOLtlebells and not a real functional training tool
Anthony Green
I just did 1 handed swings with my 100lb dumbbells and they worked great
Jayden Thompson
what's it like being gay
Hunter Perry
>toothpicks for legs
hard pass negro
Brandon Watson
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO
Liam Lewis
You'll eventually hit a wall with calisthenics if you don't add weight. Use body weight as an accessory.
Josiah Gutierrez
holy shit kettlebell faggots btfo forever LITERALLY how will they ever recover?
Jeremiah White
No you didn't.
Wait for that flimsy plastic to break and send your dumbbell flying. Wait to try to do anything actually heavy with that crap.
Jayden Collins
Too bad no one who uses kettlebells can actually lift heavy newfag.
80lbs is not heavy.
Nolan Rogers
Then I'll probably only need to get them in 3 years once I've done 5 one-arm pullups and a single one-arm HSPU
Oliver Collins
>kettle bells will help with your lifts
i have never heard of this until this post
James Myers
I don't know if you've noticed, but you haven't lifted a barbell in a couple weeks. how are you coping? Wait until the gyms reopen and the Chads who trained with kettlebells during quarantine take your barbell from you and overhead press your squat.
Levi Flores
>facts
>all points sound like opinion without actual evidence
Blake Gomez
Post source, I’ve considered kb to keep from losing my oly gains, but you are promising a lot, but the only lads I see doing kb stuff is soi and cross shitters
Jonathan Brown
>kettle bells significantly increase all bar lifts
>decide to start doing bar lifts instead
i dont understand this
Levi Peterson
Well, I would like to personally welcome you into the fitness subculture. With enough time and hard work, you will learn.
Jonathan Scott
With how expensive kettle bells are you might as well just buy a barbell
Asher Butler
its basically going to be like going from Boxing to Judo. You aren't going to be practicing the same skills but you might use similar movements that use same muscles. But in reality, you will be working out in something new and make new gains.
You should get the idea of keeping all your oly PRs out of your head if you dont have a home gym
Luis Morgan
>learn to troll as badly as OP
holy shit this thread is lame as fuck. you aren't even harassing anyone in here with ridiculous statements
Ian Harris
Any good kettlebell routines?
How many / what weight do I buy?
Sebastian Sanders
I’ll probably just buy a barbell then it’s not too much more and then I can just cancel my gym membership, all I’ll need is blocks for do heavy squats and jerks, I’m trying compete so I don’t want to waste money and time on something that won’t transfer well
Gavin Jenkins
Guess what? This might be hard for you to wrap your head around, but you can do both kettlebell and barbell work. You just unintentionally revealed your narrow-mindedness by assuming it's one or the other. And if you haven't noticed, gyms are closed right now, and it might be beneficial for you to train with what you can get your hands on.
Isaac Miller
Your skills in oly lifts would carry over to kettle bell shits but it wouldn't be the same the other way around. It would be like thinking joining a crossfit gym would be a good idea over just staying with an olympic coach
Carson Reed
Guess what? This might be impossible for you to understand but kettle bells don't help with barbell lifts.
Joseph Wilson
It depends on where you're starting. You can just start with one 24kg and go from there. The staple KB exercise is the swing. It's a great workout that will strengthen your core and posterior chain. The Turkish getup is another KB staple, but you can do a lot with only one KB.
Kevin Ortiz
Get a pull up bar with some dumbbells instead. It offers everything kettle bells do but more.
Levi Scott
I have those things. I want to challenge myself with something new. I've already noticed KB gains after only 2 weeks. I was throwing my coworkers 4 year old so high while she was mirin'. You can't do the same movements with a DB.
Matthew Fisher
Thanks user
I thought about getting a pull-up bar but I don't know if my doorframe would handle it, I live in an old apartment
Caleb Powell
Fuck off, pavel
Nathaniel Ward
Thats incorrect, user. Strength endurance helps with barbell lifts.
Henry Lee
You have a KB routine? I started with Onnit i need something new
Isaac Cook
Also turns you into a sexual jackhammer.
Brody Perez
I've been doing cleans, shoulder press, swings,
preacher curls, overhead extensions, and shrugs. For legs I will do one legged DL, goblet squat, lunge, and jumps. It's tiring, but it feels great. My gloots are sore.
Charles Watson
EVERY website I look at is sold out of kettlebells
Michael Bennett
i have one (1) 10lb kettlebell.been doing bottoms up presses snd my wrist stability has improved tenfold, but its not heavy ebough to be of much use for anything else. any suggestions?
Connor Kelly
Is simple & sinister a meme program?
I've been doing it for a couple weeks now, since being quarantined, and it feels like it's not enough?
I'm doing it 6 times a week, btw
Aiden Robinson
Kayden Jenkins
what are your goals? lol
what weight are you using?
how long does it take you to do it?
Ian Price
I'M CIA
Camden Perry
Do you have any fitness equipment place near you? They're probably open bec business is booming for them.
Probably get a heavier kettlebell? Or try a new complex. Just make it hard for yourself and focus on contracting your muscles.
Jacob Lopez
Is that a garbage bag filled with human excrement?
Adrian White
Call Pavel soi or a crossfitter one more time, I dare you motherfucker.
Juan Long
Everything is based on books of Pavel Tsatsouline who used to work with soviet scientists and is a father of kettlebell in USA.
Jack Campbell
just try them, what have you got to lose
Ryder Robinson
>everything is based on the opinion pieces of one guy that made money off of his books that push for kettlebell sales
think for yourself you fucking npc, there is 0 benefit to using a kettlebell when you have any other form of free weight available even diy cement dumbbells are more useful.
Thomas Lewis
Is that the strayan tranny, Heinz Mouncey?
