A great price, including free delivery via DPD LOCAL...pity the driver :disappointed:
Other weights available (4, 8, 12, 16, and 28kg)
Don't forget to use code for 15% discount on all HYPE equipment (I was tempted by quite a few pieces of kit, including the farmers walk bars)
Enjoy!

TCB 5.25% and Quidco 4%
Might not work since using a discount code but still maybe worth a try

The hype sliver brand olympic plates seem to be less than a quid per kg with the code, little confused as it only states 15kg and 20kg come in a pair. free delivery over £10, free next day delivery over £70, Great deal all round.
*obvious typo, it states 2 x kg when added to basket, feel like a pleb.

What would be a good start weight for a puny manlet?
Edit: Answering my own question:

It depends on what exercise(s) you are planning on doing with the kettlebell(s).
A range from, say, 12kg to 20kg, in 2kg or 4kg steps, would probably keep you occupied for longer than buying a single (or pair) at 16kg.

I started with a 24 for swings and a 16 for get-ups, if that's any help at all (I exercise but I'm not very strong)

16kg for get ups is quite a start! That'll be too heavy for most starters I would say. 12kg would be better for get ups and 16kg for swings to start imo.

I've done Kettlebell training at the gym for a few years. I never went to the gym for bodybuilding just to lose weight and tone up (they hate us people in the gym ) I'd say 8KG reverse arm lift if you're puny will still tax you quite a bit, so I'd get 8KG,12KG and 16KG. 16KG you'll probably just be doing between the legs double arm swings as that will feel pretty heavy if you're puny. 32KG you'll not get much use out of that as you'll be exhausted trying to do anything useful with it.

I second that after reading Tim Ferriss's book Tools of Titans and his Podcast in which Pavel Tsatsouline (Kettlebell Master who introduced it to the western market) features. I started Kettlebell swings a few weeks ago and feel great aswell as beginning to lose weight. Many believe it's the only tool you need to start a good exercise regime and I believe it's a great way to start for a beginner and advanced into a fitness which includes a healthy diet too. Just my 2 cents :thumbsup:
