I recommend that most women can start with an 8 kg/18-lb kettlebell, while fit women can begin with a 12 kg/26-lb kettlebell. A male starting to work out should begin with a 16 kg/35-lb kettlebell, while a fit man can begin with a 24 kg/53-lb kettlebell. This is my opinion, based upon my experiences.
In collegiate menâs crew, the minimum weight for a coxswain is 125 pounds, regardless of whether the coxswain is male or female (this is, it appears, the main reason why so many coxswains are femaleâit is simply far easier to find a girl around 125 pounds a guy).ome coxswains have no trouble making weight; some even have to work to reach the weight minimum. A full Nalgene of water weighs two pounds, one coxswain tells me, and that is precisely what she would drink to bring her 123-pound frame up to the minimum.
