Hi
I'm just getting started with S&S, having got myself 16kg and 24kg kettlebells, as recommended for an 'average gentleman'. I can swing the 24, but I wouldn't say comfortably, and I can barely get started doing TGUs with the 16. I've tried TGUs with a 12kg, which I can do even if they're a bit wobbly.
I guess, I'm a below average gentleman at the moment. I'm 46 years old, 5'10" and 80kg at about 23% bf.
So, do I persevere with the 16 and 24kg bells or use the 16 for swings and a 12kg for TGUs?
Does it matter? My feeling is to use the smaller bells to get started and work through the progression from there.
Got to say I'm feeling a bit demotivated at the moment. I knew I was starting from being very weak but I had no idea it was this bad!
Thanks in advance.
