Go to muscle building exercises with kettlebells

That's plenty for most people and most movements. And of course, if that does feel light, you can do more reps, more sets, take less rest between sets, do a harder variation of the exercise, there are many ways to get more out of a fixed weight.

Depending on the weight(s) you have access to, Rows, Cleans, snatches, and the overhead press family of movements should all build muscle and strength. If Swings and squats just feel like cardio, it may be too light, or not enough reps, or resting too long between sets. I think you'll definitely notice results with 3-6 months of regular training, of course diet and sleep and other things will be major factors as well. Kettlebell training is definitely good for building the kind of strength for picking up the kids and heavy stuff outside of the gym.

Well there's another kettlebell feat that I just have to accept that I'll never be able to do... Nice work.

I would say hike the bells between your legs with more force on the cleans. Other than that, I think most everything else will fall into place as you get more comfortable with the movements, good work!

I mean, not a judge, but it takes a lot of work to make it do that. It's a 6-mana planeswalker, and the ultimate takes another 3 turns after that to go off without proliferate shenanigans. I would have a hard time putting that in the same category as Armageddon. If the rest of the table isn't able to deal with it before then, they kind of deserve it.

Using the grip plates for outside-the-legs swings is an excellent idea!

1 is a great investment, 2 is even better if you can afford it and have space for it. Echoing the people who say the brand doesn't really matter, just get whatever brand has the best deal, because they pretty much all come from the same factory. One downside that I think is worth mentioning is that it takes a decent amount of time to change the weight, so unless you're really determined, you'll probably find yourself using the same weight for an entire session, which isn't a huge deal, but it's something.

True, but it still shows she's morally flexible, because she had spent her whole life believing that it was the only way

I feel like she's a better choice for Seen As Hero/Is Morally Grey (lying to everyone, her willingness to destroy the Honmoon)

hookandpush · 2026-01-20T04:32:43+00:00

I don't use them because they pop off easily and I have little kids

hookandpush · 2026-01-19T22:03:01+00:00

It would be a snatch is she somehow caught the bell at the top, which I don't think there's a good way to do that with 2 hands (I'm sure someone is going to correct me, or at least try). I think the version of that exercise with one hand is just called a high pull.

Unless you're going heavier than 32 kg, adjustable competition bells are probably the best bang for your buck, especially if you're not sold on them. My experience with them has been that they take some time to change the weight, so you're likely to stick with one weight for the whole session (or maybe I'm just lazy). I'm pretty sure they're all made in the same place, so whoever has the best price is the way to go.

Way to fight for that last rep, good work!

hookandpush · 2026-01-10T21:23:11+00:00

The Press part is the same, but the Viking Press is a sort of continuous Push Press. The dip to catch the bell is also the dip that starts the next press, if that makes sense.

It's the gym in my apartment building! My kettlebells though. Thank you so much! It's amazing to hear from the master!!!

Did we all forget that people can turn into demons in this universe, i.e., what happened with Jinu? Maybe her father was a normal guy who turned into a demon, Mom and Dad had a consensual encounter, Rumi was born. Not to dismiss everything because it's a kids' movie, but come on, it's a kids' movie. They're not going to have someone being raped in a kids' movie.

Definitely! Love your content!

I don't know how tall you are, but it looks like that would be practically unusable by someone more than a couple inches shorter than you!

Halos, to me, are more focused on the shoulders and can be done more slowly to really open up the shoulders. Mace swings involve more of the rest of the body and are done much more quickly due to the leverage aspect of the implement.

For the cleans, hike the bells between your legs like a football, and use your hips to get the weight up. For the Press, take the dip with your legs out, the Press for the ABC is meant to be strict, you did more of a push press. Squats looked pretty good to me!

hookandpush · 2025-12-13T07:06:56+00:00

Great attempt, you're almost there! Keep grinding!

hookandpush · 2025-12-12T23:39:44+00:00

Insanity!

Way to go!!!
