Description
Picking an appropriate kettlebell:
- If you’re a petite girl, or a beginner start with 18-20lb kettlebell.
- If you’re an intermediate and can do 6-8 regular push ups, you can start with 22-24lb kettelbell.
- If you think of yourself as a strong girl, start with 26lbs.
Benefits from regular kettlebell training:
- Strength – the ballistic nature of kettlebell training provides an extreme challenge for the entire body which results in fast strength gains even with a relatively light weight.
- Cardio & Endurance – the intensity of rapid kettlebell moves is the perfect way to a more powerful, resilient heart and the ability to sustain vigorous activity for longer periods of time.
- Weight Management & Fat Loss – kettlebell training provides a fast, reliable and highly effective way to burn fat, build lean muscle and increase your metabolic health.
- Flexibility & Mobility – The kettlebell improves flexibility and joint mobility, and reinforces natural movement patterns which is crucial for speed, resilience and proper postural alignment.
- Total Body Conditioning & Superior Athleticism – regular, vigorous kettlebell training builds both mental and physical toughness, boosts energy and helps you handle high stress with more ease.

A good exercise mat is important and you will need it for almost every workout in the ZGYM. There are a lot of bad quality exercise mats that slide and eventually shred once you start jumping on them and putting them through all the beating of your daily training. I found a great mat that really lasts and doesn’t slip:Here is my suggestion:
Gaiam Eco-Grip Yoga Mat, 3mm
You can use a chair for support. Just make sure it is sturdy enough for you.
