Kettlebell Kettlebell Names

[Oscar]

Some are actually promoting the "squat with a front raise" as a legit exercise.

A squat for the lower body plus a shoulder exercise. We have the new Zar of kettlebell exercises

I love the fact that apart from the Beast other sizes don’t have names. Makes you respect it even more if anything before it is anonymous. And gives you something to look forward in few years time perspective.

Naming them all feels kind of cartoonish, like Pokémon - collect them all haha!

I have twin Rogue 32kgs that I call Tannisgrisnir (teeth barer) and Tanngnjostr (teeth grinder) after Thor's Goats.

Love it. I just have one Rogue 32kg and call it Mjolnir (see my profile). It's heavy and nobody who sees it can pick it up. Present company in this forum excluded.

The 24kg is the only one I've lost and sent sailing across the room. So "DUCK!"

I don't have nicknames for mine, but I do have a shameful secret. When I'm by myself, alone in the house with just me and my kettlebells, I sometimes mentally think of them in their lb weight instead of their proper kg weight.

Even worse, I do this when cycling (thinking in terms of miles instead of kilometers), which is apparently worse than taking EPO.
