What size kettlebell to use?




Bella wasn't even sure today, so how can you tell what size kettlebell you should start using. There are exceptions to almost every rule of thumb, however, these are some guidelines you can follow when starting your kettlebell training. Women will generally start with an 8kg kettlebell and quickly move to the 12kg kettlebell. Men may wish to start with the 16kg kettlebell however the 24kg kettlebell is a quick addition to the training tools.

I must say that Bella is the cutest little puppy dog in the world! Who cares if I'm biased on that. ;)
