So, who owns what sizes and do you get them in duplicates?  Already have a 35 lb KB, adding a 26 lb KB and have debated getting two of each so I can do things like farmers walk....

I have a 53 at the house to take on deployemnts, but my gym is only a mile a way and on the way to work, so if I need doubles there are plenty there.

yeah...no gym close enough to me that is convienient unfortunately.  I've decided my best course of action is to slowly build up a home gym.

Samesies.



Need bigger, wouldn't mind a 2pd, hell, a 3pd would be useful, on occasion.

17, 25 and 35 lbs.  One of each, though I've thought at times it would be nice to have two of the same for some things.

What are your fitness goals? Kettlebells are excellent, but for most people's purposes, finding a used barell and rack would be the most useful and fundamental piece of home equipment.

I would get a 53 pound and a 70 after that.  And then, an 80.  I would want to farmer's walk with the heaviest possible, such as the 80.

My gym has a chit ton of them but I rarely lay a finger on them.

Normally the progression is to go from using a single 16kg (35lb) up to a 24kg (53lb) and then finally a 32kg.  

I've got doubles of 24kg and 32kg, but only a single 16kg.  You can do a lot more than just farmer's walks with double kettlebells ;)

goals are really just general, overall fitness,  strength training, maintain whatever muscle mass I have now and build on it slightly, etc/.  A rack and free weights is a planned purchase for me this later this year, but I want to have a variety of things to choose from when it comes to working out, if for no other reason so I don't get bored.

at 47, Im not looking to start breaking any records, and I am also trying to be careful about what i do so i don't damage myself further (damaged shoulder last year being an idiot with heavy weight) but it is is somewhat better)
