I bought a 16 Kg kettlebell for learning the basics technics

Why wouldn't you get the adjustable kind so you can do progressive overload?

Not really that good since you're stuck with the same low weight forever. Maybe you can do some fun stuff with them, but I'd never use them as my "main" workout tool.
A barbell and a rack + bench or an actual gym membership is just better because you have infinitely more ways (and weight) to get strong and progress.

I agree with you in part, when training with kettlebells the goals is to be able to move quickly a weight with the coordination of all the body muscle with the minimal effort, also enhancing the resistance to explosive strength

I agree with you that kettlebell don't build much strength and muscle compare to barbell because it is not the kb core objective

The coordination I agree with, but the "enhancing the resistance to explosive strength" I don't buy. 16 and 24 kg is not enough resistance to challenge your explosive strength.
A 100kg power clean is gonna require way more CNS and muscle recruitment from your entire body than some light kettlebells.

That's why I think kettlebells can be supplementary to your training, but should not be the main tool if you want to actually get good at something.

Because unlike dumbbells, kettlebells don't work like that, unless you want some retarded injuries and kill your wrists.

McCregor and Mayweather mainly does bodyweight workouts, you mean to tell Me that they have lower explosive strenght than some average powerlifter?

>>42471420
punching isn't the same explosive strength as a power clean. It's a fast body weight movement and training high resistance for those kinda movements slows you down and doesn't make you hit harder. It's not a measure of strength. That's why wrestlers squat and dead-lift a lot but boxers don't

you can get different types of handles or even make your own to progressively overload on swings

I'm sure some of the guys in plg can retard clean it, but it was just an example. You can still load more a barbell and progress on it better than with one or two kettlebells.
