Kettlebell Strength Test + New Video ("Top Down" KB Press)

Published: Thu, 05/02/19

Hardcore KB fans + serious lifters:

Think you're strong?

Take this simple test.

(Again - this is NOT for beginners.)

MEN - press a 1/2 bodyweight - size kettlebell for a single rep on either side.

WOMEN - press a 1/3 bodyweight - size kettlebell for a single rep on either side.


For example - if you are a 176 pound man, you'd need to press a 88# kettlebell.

Another example - if you a 132 pound woman, you'd need to press a 44# kettlebell.

(I didn't make this up arbitrarily by the way - this is the standard to pass the SFG level II kettlebell certification.)

How'd you do?

If you're not there yet - don't worry.

This is a challenging, but attainable goal, for anyone willing to put in the work.

I have a new video for you (linked below) to check out that's a start - it will help you "groove" the move, and improve your technique.
