There’s currently a kettlebell shortage.

Writing a post earlier today, I remembered an episode of The Pat Flynn Show where he talks about building a minimal home gym.

His recommendation:

• His $1 book about kettlebells
• A pull-up bar
• An ab wheel
• And a 16kg kettlebell

On a later episode, Dan John gives his answer as well. I’ll need to dig up what he picked but it was similar to Pat’s recommendations.

Here’s what I currently have at home.

• Kettlebells 16kg, 20kg
• Ab wheel
• Pull-up bar
• A bunch of bands
• A treadmill <— Recent addition, quarantine purchase

A few days ago I wanted to add a 28kg kettlebell to add to the setup. Onnit, Kettlebell Kings, Rogue, Dicks… sold out for most sizes.

(Finally found one at Rep Fitness if you happen to be looking at the moment.)
