Nice article on kettlebell swings!

Some interesting data as well...heavy KB swings are the shizz

T NATION | Are Heavy Kettlebell Swings Better Than Deadlifts?

ummm need more larger kettlebells, 24kg is the heaviest I have.

Can you even get 93kg kettle bells here ?

I've seen 80kg

so 32kg or 36kg or 40kg to get next (have 12, 16, 24) ?

64kgs, 80kgs and i believe PTC Sydney has ordered a 106kg bell.

My biggest bell is 50kgs, I've only used it as a doorstop so far

Custom made 106? Better option is buying a couple more mid size and using them 1 in each hand imo

For huge swings, you'd have to think a T-Handle and oly plates would be better as you could vary the weight... and KB's that heavy are going to be hundreds of dollars each?...

I can't even do proper swings with my 64kb yet!

 

[kaz]

I believe the 106kg will be a show piece......or just for UDL's??
I remember seeing Mideon and Sherro trying to swing the 80....

 

[chocchillimango]

I've got an adjustable that maxes out at 32kg and I swing that.
Would love a heavier one for UDLs and stuff for sure

Haha maybe not a 106kg right now ...

wow, i can't even get my single 40KG overhead and struggle to push press the single 32 a couple times!

 

[lex]

I'm only just up to 16kg on presses (3x15 each arm)

 

[NightFallTech]

I can do about 5-6 reps each arm bottoms up with my 16kg, but i still struggle to get a lot of reps out with the 24kg and without a substantial push press, i can't even shift the 32 from the rack position

Ivan is a special dude.
