Before I took up the sport I had been receiving treatment for a problem with facet joints in my lower back which was deemed successful.
One of the lifts in kettlebell sport is called a jerk.
While I can maintain strength in my legs and arms while doing this technique, my back is always the first to give up.
Without proper stamina in my back I can never compete!
Anyone got any tips or hints?
Especially if you do kettlebell sport I would appreciate your comments.

I know that i need to undergo strength training b/c my orthopedic prescribed me to it but physical therapy is too expensive.

in some Italian bodybuilding forums i read they are a sort of weights but better because they forced some muscles that without those aren’t enough trained, that with normal weights it’s hard to train.
They say that many Basketball, Football and Rugby players use those, to improve explosivity, body control and athletism
Is that true? Is there someone of you who use it?
If i wanna buy, do them cost a lot??!
i’m doing at the moment plyo-metrics exercises to maintein my elevation or improve it…. Should i stop or can i do it with Kettlebells exercises at the same time?
Thanks

Can anyone please inform me of some good exercises focusing on the abdominal muscles, back, arms and chest?
Thanks in advance!

I weigh 195lbs, I bench press 3 sets of 225lbs. x 8 and do 3 sets of 8 pullups, both as part of my regular workout routine (3 times a week). I jog and practice martial arts (krav maga and kickboxing) regularly.
What size weights should I get? A few reviews on amazon suggested that a 53lbs. weight was all I needed, but that sounds a little steep. At the same time, I don’t want to waste my money on something that’s too light. Do I even need multiple sized weights or will one weight work for all exercises?
