Thread: Anyone use kettlebells? or made their own?

I started using KBs 3 weeks ago and I have a blast workout out with them. Pavel's "Enter the Kettlebell" is IMO the best information guide. you can get it by torrent from many places, the PDF and the video. In the 3 weeks i can definitely tell my shoulder strength and my core strength have improved. Ill be finishing up the "RKC minimum" which is the first 4 weeks of the program and moving onto the "Rite of Passage" which looks to be pretty intense.

I right now only have one 40lb bell which is not pro grade but it gets the job done. The workouts are short but extremely intense. Good luck in your endeavors. And remember to eat right before and after the workout.

so here are some pics of my latest try, it will work good but it is a little bit lopsided i used a 10.5" ball from the dollar store and some drywall mud to mold it. the problem came when trying to very buoyant ball in the drywall mud. plus i was all my myself so 2 hands were not enough. i learned my lessons though.

What do they weigh and why does it need to be such on add shape? trying to figure out how you use em
