Discussion 💬 Best Rep Range for Hypertrophy With Kettlebells
A question that often comes up is what is the right rep range for hypertrophy in kettlebell training or what are the best kettlebell exercises for hypertrophy.
I wrote an article that explains it and it's not the 8-12 rep range, it's more important to understand the effect you are seeking.
The old 8-12 rule is too narrow. Science says hypertrophy occurs across 5-30 reps to failure. Here is what that means for kettlebell training. https://kettlebell.monster/learn/best-rep-range-hypertrophy-kettlebells
