Your first kettlebell: which weight should you buy?
Kettlebells come in steps of about 4 kg, so your first purchase matters: too light and you outgrow it in weeks, too heavy and you learn the moves badly.
Use the picker to see which weight suits your starting point for squats, swings, presses and get-ups, then decide between cast iron, vinyl and adjustable.
