      Update:
      When I first began KB training several years ago my single 53 pounder was my arch nemesis and after several years of progress I’ve graduated to my heaviest bell to date which is a 100 pounder.
      I’m injury free and stronger than ever. I’m doubling up on all my bells and have definitely seen huge progress by gradually by “doubling up” before training with a heavier bell for singles. Thanks again.

    What are your thoughts of getting a slightly heavier bell and performing doubles for asymmetric loading? I have been working with a 24k for several months and can perform most exercises with relative ease (except the snatch - they gas me out). I was considering another 24k to do double front squats, clean and press. Then, I thought about getting a 60lb bell to add weight to single arm training and perhaps still perform doubles. Any suggestion here - should I get another 24k or another bell slightly heavier?

    I wish I had heard this a few months ago. I had a single 20kg and it was time to move up. I ended up buying a 2nd 20kg as well as a 32kg. And I don’t fully regret my decision as the 32kg has been very useful for raw strength. However, my pair of 20kg is are my main focus. I really had no idea how much I’d love a pair and how useful they would be. I also had no idea how much they’d kick my ass. If I’d known I would have saved the heavier 32kg for a later purchase.

    I asked myself when I can press one single 20kg 5 sets 10 reps. What should I buy a second 20kg kb? Of course at first it is a little bit stressful but you are moving the same weight per side. For example a 5 x 10 reps set with one or two KBs are still the same kid for the side? IMHO I bought a second 16kg kb and yes it’s heavy at first but it’s very quickly the same like the training g with the single one. After round about one month I can handle both. I updated my workout with two 20kg KBs because the 16s are too easy.
    If I am wrong correct me :)

  • @warriorqueen94
    @warriorqueen94 3 роки тому +2

    Nice to hear your thoughts on this but I'd take an exception and say if you can only have two kettlebells go for one lighter and one heavier one. I find double kettlebell swings awkward to do. A heavier bell along with a lighter bell can be programmed in numerous other ways than two lighter bells. Movements such as presses, rows and cleans are better when doing with a single bell with the cross-body stabilization needed to give you a good core workout as well.

    • @kettlebellmusclegain
      @kettlebellmusclegain  3 роки тому

      You can swing outside of legs with doubles. Also. Agree with stabilizatuon factor on
      F one bell but theyve already been building a base of that with the single bell they have. 2 bells of same weight opens up many more options

  • @chazlyle41
    @chazlyle41 4 роки тому +1

    To say exactly what you did and be redundant about redundancy; it also makes sense to keep in mind the weight of your pairs (ie. 35+35=70) when you DO buy that bigger bell and get something not so close to 70 since you already have that weight covered for many lifts/swings.
    I have two 9s that I use to warm up so I avoid a 20.
    9+9=18
    35+35=70
    Next purchase for me will be a 50 something, right between my pairs :)

    I could not agree more. I own an18lb, a 26lb and two 35's. Then I bought two 44's. I thought about going higher in weight with one big bell but I'm happy I didn't. I still use the lighter weight for warm ups. I'm getting a bit older and appreciate a good warm-up more than I used too. I just bought two 53's but after two 44's I'm glad took a smaller step. Buy two for sure. It's far more versatile.

    I'm 53, and just started kb training this past August. I've been working since 1980, football, karate, weight-training, etc., this is some of the most challenging and fun I've ever had working out. I do have a 35# and am completely happy with the one, I probably won't go up much higher, maybe 40#. I have a lot of aches and pains, and do a pretty long warm-up. Should I get a heavier one, or should I stick with this weight? Or should I challenge myself?

      Take Pavel's smart and sinister approach: do 10 sets of 10 single arm swings (totaling 100), rest, and then do 5 turkish get ups on each side within five minutes (for each side). If you can do that comfortably, then it's time to go up in weight.

    I respectfully disagree. And the example you gave is exactly why I disagree: people don't just double it. The gap is too great. Just because you can swing a 24 kg bell doesn't mean you can swing a 48 even remotely proficiently. And 2x24 isn't going to make a difference in that respect. Imho, it all depends a bit on where your first bells range in weight. If you got an 8 and then a 12 you get another 8 after. But if you got a 16 and then a 20 I'd get a 24 before I'd consider another 16. You can already work with 2 unmatched kb's for some heavier work anyway. Just switch them around each set.

    • @kettlebellmusclegain
      @kettlebellmusclegain  3 роки тому +2

      Cool youre right you can. But many peoppe are doing KB sport and you cant offset that. Its also not just swinging. Perhaps i didnt mention that. Cant remember its an old video. But presses double snatch jerk etc. Of course it depends on first bells weightm but most deconditioned to kettlebell people shouldnt be starting with 24 anyway

  • @IrvinLep
    @IrvinLep 3 роки тому +2

    Totally disagree with this advice. Jumping from swinging a 35 to swinging 2 35s is way too much, especially for newbies. It also doesn't do anything for your 1 handed excercises, be it any pressing motion, windmills, TGUs. Meanwhile if you get a bigger bell you can progressively overload every single excercise you were doing before.
    You can now press with both arms at the same time, a weight that you have already outgrown. Great! So much better!
    You can double row a weight that is already too light for you. WTF?
    This advice makes no sense

    • @kettlebellmusclegain
      @kettlebellmusclegain  3 роки тому

      It might make no sense to you but doing bilateral exercises builds many things. Tension and strength wise especially after unilateral phases. Obviously we want progressively heavier weights but many people goals is to do kettlebell sport as well. And you need double bells for jerk and long cycle. . Double deadlifts before swings.etc. .besides there are so many other variables to measure and progress on not just weight. I appreciate your thoughts.
