I played American football for 8 years and I have lifted weights for 20+ years. I preach deadlifts to any male hacker and/or office worker who will listen. To the women, I preach kettlebell swings.
- hoka-one-one 6y agoI played football too. I remember sacking a guy named throwaway815190 once, it was super easy. He cried and they had to sub him out.
- Olreich 6y agoWhy don’t you preach the same thing to both genders? If kettle bells work for women and deadlifts work for men, why not preach both to both genders based on current capacity?
- hvis 6y agoMuscles are different between genders, on average. A woman's 1RM is a lower percentage of her body weight than a man's (on any exercise, on average), but she will usually be able to do more reps at e.g. 70% of 1RM. So it makes sense to exercise that higher endurance, and kettlebells are very nice for their mix of strength/endurance work. (I'm male and love both the barbell and the kettlebell).
