Kettlebells vs Barbells

depends on if you have a good baseline strength or not.

KB is very good for ballistics movements

but to train for ballistics movement one requires a decent baseline strength.

tldr

KB are great but not for someone new

I havent done much strength work before, i managed to clean and press the 20s for 3 sets of 6 reps the other day when trying them out. Maybe I could join a gym for a few months to build a basic level of strength then switch to the kbs?

sure, do a linear beginner program for a few months while eating a lot, and then diet down while doing kettle workouts, with KBs up to 40kg you can do a lot of stuff on your own then

mmm I want her to grab my balls like that

Great, sounds like a plan. Any one in particular that you would recommend? Half of fit says SS is a meme and the other half says its legit so I cant figure out which one is the meme.
Seperate question: Can anyone recommend some exercises to get joocy traps with kettlebells? My gf says all she cares about is big traps abs and strong arms so if i get those 3 down hopefully more sex lmoa

SS is good if you have zero experience lifting and need to build some baseline strength/mass before moving on. If you know what you're doing, you can do brosplit and I'm sure you'll be fine. As far as trap exercises go, its either shrugs and/or upright rows for the most part and any variation of the two.

Should i do the shrugs/upright rows with the heaviest bells i can or for high reps?

Buy a barbell and some tri-grip plates.

You can use the tri-grip plates like kettle bells too for some movements.

the problem with your 20kg for 3x6 is when does your form breakdown or how good it is.

Can't judge something like that without eyes on.

Barbell training is simple (sorta) weight goes up one plane and down the same and increased in increments. which is why it's recommended.

I can only suggest things.

If you're really strapped for cash: work on a body weight program while using your KB for squats and deadlifts.

The cleans felt ok but the last press of each set was definitely shaky.
Hmm how would I know when I'm ready to move onto the kettlebells after my bodyweight program?

Or maybe i could start with the 16s instead
