A request for advice from seasoned Kettlebell lifters: how can I start working out with kettlebells, preferably using DVD's or instructional guides as opposed to an instructor, which I cannot currently afford? Thx for serious responses.
Any exercise is better than none. Bickering about which is superior Kettlebell or free weights is just stupid. Both have their benefits. I personally train both. I gotta 55lb, 80lb, and 106lb Kettlebell and they're soooo awesome for joint stability and strength endurance and the nervous system. But I still do barbell squats, dead lift, and clean and press just for the raw power.
kettlebells give no more power or strenth than any other explosive weight movement, and a rep of a weight to ur body is just a rep with that weight, id say the kettlebell helped him at this weight in this lift because he didnt have to control the weight at the grip level, if this was a dumbell i doubt even one rep. If you cant understand why ill post it but im hoping you will figure it out ur self. . . good kettlebell lift sir, keep up the good work.

kb gives a quick boost of power and strength compared to traditional free weights like dumbells or barbells. 1 rep of kb is equal to 10 reps in a dumbell with the same amount of weight.
Dude Its definitely 136 pounds. I can lift 40lb dumbbells, and i have some trouble doing exercises with a fucking 30lb kettlebell, you see how skinny he is? No doubt hes stronger than guys who weight like 150lbs more.
i was in the room when this was shot. he was the junior world kettlebell champ. he has no need to go back to the basics. he is jerking his body weight one handed fluidly for reps. if thats basic level belling id love to see what advanced was in your opinion.
Well, you do have to give it to him that he is very strong. People who haven't tried it don't realize how freaking heavy that thing is, plus the way it was put together threw him off I think.

@rmsolympic1 Pavel's book - Enter the Kettlebell is a really good starting point.

I don't think I will be trying the 136 lb kettlebell anytime soon.

yes I'm not small guy and I just bought 12 lbs and I think that is heavy enough for now. Dumbbells I think are lighter then kettlebells

Go check out some kettlebells, it's truly amazing how much way they can compact into a ball of weight.

He hurt himself doing it. Need to go back to the basics and work his way up. This video proved nothing.
