Is it true that kettlebells do not provide muscle mass benifits even with a lot of weight? I have never tried kettlebells, but I am considering them. I can't keeping going with traditional methods because my tendonitis is really bothersome.
Initially with tendonitis is inflammation of the tendon.... repetitive use of the joint will not help reduce the soreness. May i suggest, rest and ice.
i believe you can expect to find kettlebells will give you a more leaner look. and they can also give you more overall strength. Majority of the moves you perform will be compound exercises, there by strengthening your kinetic chain. Which in my opinion is far more beneficial than isolating individual muscles...
I am focusing on building more mass, and it seems every time my tricep is involved with a lot of weight, my elbows hurt like hell. This usually makes me stop before really getting a good work out in. And I'm back to the ice.
Anyway, thanks for the info. I will still consider them when I finally come across them. I would agree that muscle isolation isn't nearly as benificial.
what you've said would suggest to me a few of issues you might want to look at, firstly technique (not wanting to offend you, but possible), secondly a possible imbalance in muscles - maybe look at biceps/forearms/ shoulders etc to strengthen before pushing heavier with triceps, thirdly kettlebells will strenghten the whole area around the arms and it might help you in the future.. i dont know with out seeing what you're doing but it could be something worth considering.. take care and good luck
I am just starting to train with kettlebells. Exciting and different. I am trying to keep safe because dropping one of these on my feet or getting clanked in the head would not be pleasant. Watching this vid I see a couple of places where the KB comes within an inch or two of your head. Ok for you - you are skilled - I'd end up at the IC ward.
All i would recommend initially is for you to train with a light weight and practice all the different moves. With confidence try a bigger weight but keep the repetitions smaller until your endurance, strength and skill has increased. To date i've had no injuries with clients using the kettlebells. the danger comes from fatigue or trying to lift a weight that doesnt suit the person using them. heres another tip - Try practising in front of a mirror... technique will improve massively.
anyone who can do an alternating snatch is good, but why do you let the bell flip over the top and not the proper corksrew way? a bad habit for a beginner watching.
When you're shifting a 24kg bell above the head, the flip technique is more efficient and will reduce potential wrist damage from the twisting action involved with the corkscrew.(especially when doing the alternate snatch) To be honest i doubt any beginner will be using two 24kgs, i suggest any beginner to try both techniques as i don't believe the corkscrew one is the "proper way" and any better than the flip technique. Some of my clients prefer the flip whilst others prefer the twist...
Yeah I agree. I always perform mine with the twist (slight twist w/ doubles too), but there are many kettlebell athletes far more experience than me who prefer the flip over method or "hard style" as I believe it's called. Kenneth Jay is a great example, one of the most intense and capable KB athletes on earth (and a senior RKC), of someone who uses flip over style.

Wow! very impressive ! thank you,i learn a lot by watching your video.
I'm able to do combo with 40 lbs(18 kg) and people don't realise how cardio it is to do double snatch and routine with KB.
What is your height and weight ?
Have a nice week.

Rest and ice is usually the tradition.
