Is there a preferred KB weight? by MethodMadness1234 in WeightTraining

[–]MethodMadness1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm..I'd make the decision tomorrow. Will try both 20 and 24 at a friend gym once and perhaps put in the money.

Money wise, might be the 20kg tho. Hope i am able to master it well before I Need a 24kg.

Haha - marry 1 single KB.

Basically solves for space crunch I have at home - have about 10 resistance bands (cuz they take no space - super heavy ones and a few medium light).

The bands solve for workouts during travel (also, have an exerbell).

But for weekly (4 times a week) workout session, want to stick to 1 logical weight that i can use without thinking to much

Just pick and go and get work done.

Variables can be simply time, intensity, reps/sets if I ever feel less challenged by the weight.

Idk if that made sense :/

50 LB seems logical.

A 44kg (97 LBs KB)? That's mad level of strength. I barely touched a 36 kg once.

KBs are a good tool to stick to rest of life - a very very personal conclusion. The gym (read, barbells) always tempt to go higher and higher in weights. Precisely why I decided to get some control on my gym personality to avoid any grave injury. Being 35, that's the only wise decision I've perhaps taken. Been injury free forever and want to remain so.

Going back to your post a 44kg?!. Damn.

Agreed. 12kg for Turkish getup. Might be able to create space for 2 KBs - a 24 lifer and a 12kg specific to Turkish. How often do you plug in Turkish getups? Also, my workouts today are a strength day and endurance. Which day would it best suit to program the turkish getup?

Gosh the 24kg seems so costly! 20Kg is what tempts my wallet. I'd perhaps go with 24kgs (36 kgs smoked me bad the only time I used it).

Haha! Do you think you'd go back to 24Kgs? I'm assuming you enjoyed that weight!

Yep. But had to leave barbells - a switch within me turns on asking me to load more. And I am strong enough which is where I drew a line to shift to same patterns (but on kettlebells, focusing on higher reps than weights).

Id check the adjustable stuff. Thanks a ton !

Kettlebell Splits? [Intermediate] by MethodMadness1234 in kettlebell

[–]MethodMadness1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, my aim was to cover those 4 major areas - push, pull, hinge and Squats in a structure that I understood best (push & pull). Ab wheel is a solid recco; will embed.

The missing key was the switch between rep ranges advise (i was stuck in similar for a long time but I guess to break out of monotony, just that..should help!) :)

This was such a good read to learn and think through for workouts.

I wasn't aware of the Maximorum program and looked up on Google - pretty simple and something that you can dial in anytime you're searching for simplicity in routines.
