48 kg Kettlebell The Beast

48kg KETTLEBELL ‘THE BEAST’

 

Got the 48 KG kettlebell yesterday from LondonKettlebells.

Now I know why it’s called the ‘BEAST’

 

I didn’t estimate the handle would be so thick. I’m used to going ape with the 40 kg KB’s from Newitts (the handles are much thinner) but this is something else. Swinging ‘The Beast’ is not a problem for a few reps along with the same for snatch but can really notice the extra 8kg plus the handle.

 

So, I decided I would warm my self to the beast by doing cleans only for a week! Alternating hands every rep for 5-6 sets of 10 per day. I will evaluate this in a week and see where I am with swinging and snatching once my grip has acclimatised!
