I also have a pair of adjustable KB's which are at 16lb at the moment. Does anyone here use them? Have any great routines for use with them?
I looked at those once, but they were too expensive so I left them and stayed with my weights. They did look interesting though; I saw one guy do the double arm swing (raise arms to shoulder height) in a swimming pool for the added resistance; the Russian one-arm get-up looks good for the core; and it seems the swing through the legs and back to shoulder height is an all-round strength builder...have seen some stuff on youtube, that might be the place to look for "kettlebell routines".
