I started training with kettlebells to build up some strenth, which went fairly well. My workouts are extremely short, 10 snatches per side, sometimes a couple more exercises. Also, from time to time, some planks. But always below 5 minutes.

With the start of COVID, I started cycling way more, mainly touring on the weekend for 3-5 hours. Since cardio / endurance has been my primary concern, I drastically reduced my kettlebell training to one session every 6 weeks, but its still enough to maintain my 10 snatches.

I can really recommend the kettlebells, but be careful since you can quite injure yourself with the weight. I started with 16kg, which IMHO is a great starting weight for men.

FYI I am in my mid forties, overweight but now quite fit.
