What size kettlebell does one need for this DVD?

I use a 10 pound kettlebell myself. That weight works well, seems to be heavy enough to feel the workout but not too heavy so that you can't perform the exercises.

I use an 8 lb kettle bell right now but I want to get a 10 lb for certain exercises. I think 8 is a good starting point, especially if you are new to kettle bells or working out.

I used a 15.4 pounder and it was a mistake. Too heavy for this type of workout. I ordered a 10 pound and maybe will order a 7 now that I have read all the above suggestions!

I ordered 5,10 and 15 lb set from Wal-Mart for about $35-$40 dollars. I am going to purchase a seperate 7.5 or 8 lb weight soon from Wal-Mart as well. Good luck!

The girls in the video use a 7pounder. I use 8 pounds for one video and 12 for another. Depends on what you're comfortable with.

It depends on your condition. When I first did this workout, I used a 7-pounds kettlebell. One month later (when I got stronger), I upgraded to 8 pounds. Now after an year, I used 10 pounds.

I started out with a two pound hand weight and graduated to an eight pound kettlebell

It fits on ones from the manufacturer. Go to newYorkbarbells.Com. I have this unit on the c59501 bench. It is a 1 3/4 inch tube so it might fit other benches. Just so u k ow these benches are kinda big. Like gym size, if under 6ft tall it might feel too big

3" in diameter. If the bar you put them on is a little thicker (some dumbbells have contoured handles) the two ends won't touch and they'll be a little bigger: maybe 3.25" or so. I don't have much trouble going from normal handles to the 2" ones (my hands are 8 3/8th inches from base to fingertip) but these really require a drop in weight still.

Any standard size will work just fine with it. Here is the one I ordered with it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004044LD4/ref=ya_aw_oh_pii

I have the Troy Lite barbell which has a 1" diameter bar and the 1" Lock-Jaw Collar works perfectly. I think, as mentioned here, Olympic bars have a thicker diameter bar.

I never did kettlebells before this. If you have not exercised you might have to make adjustments and start with light kettlebells. I am in my late 50's and quickly moved up into 15 lb. kettlebells. I think it depends on what level of weights you are used to.

oops, I forgot to mention which one I bought...Sports Hoop® - Acu Hoop® 4M - 4lb (Dia.40") Medium, Weighted Hula Hoop for Workout with 50 minutes Workout Lesson DVD...I do like a challenge!

I would say start with about 5 lbs. Most of the Dvds are about repetitions to build endurance, shape body, and burn fat.

My bar has a circumference of 4 inches which means the diameter is approximately 1.27 inches. Don't know what the standard diameter is for an Olympic barbell (have read both Olympic and standard have an approximate 1 inch diameter and where they differ is at the weight bearing ends). I have been lifting for years at various gyms and my bar, which this pad doesn't fit, feels no different.

The inside diameter is 1" should fit any standard or Olympic barbel. I use it w/ my dumbbells as well.

In the video, the kettle is stated to have a "1.7-quart capacity". Hope this helps!

Except for the yoga (because I need to learn yoga positions) other two videos are great. IF you are thinking about kettlebell, I would for sure try brook benton.

All of the handles vary in diameter. Unlike competition bells that are all 33 mm, iron bells range from 33 mm to 37 (and up for a 32 kg bell). I started my kettlebell program on these kettlebells and loved them for the first couple of years. I am now using pro-grade bells and love the consistency in size and handle diameter regardless of the weight. If you are buying the smaller 10 lb - 26 lb, the diameter is smaller, like a 1.5 - 2.5 inch diameter. I hope that helps.

This particular model is only for Olympic plates. I needed also to buy collars as the weights will not stay in place. 2 inch collars if I remember correctly. I do recomend this machine. If its not available at this time then it should be back again later as was my case.

Depends on your fitness level. Beginner women could start with a 5 or 10 pound kettlebell. Men a 10 to 15. I considered myself an advanced exerciser and I started with a 20 pound kettlebell.
