NO FREE WEIGHT is more versatile than the kettlebell . You can press, curl, and squat it to build muscle. Or, you can build power by performing explosive movements like kettlebell swings, thrusters, and cleans. Thanks to its shape, the kettlebell's minimal footprint also makes it a great option for training at home : in a garage, apartment, or even outside (if you don't mind lugging it around).

The Best Outdoor Training Equipment, According to Fitness Editors
"Hearst Magazines and AOL may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." WHERE YOU TRAIN matters. Working out in a commercial gym, a dim basement, or a garage can be convenient, but you're probably not going to train consistently if you dread where you workout. And consistency, more than any single piece of home gym equipment, is what keeps your gains moving in the right direction. That's part of the appeal with training outside.

Gym Bros Think 35-Pound Weight Plates Are Useless. Why Do They Even Exist?
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." NO MATTER WHY or how you lift, the universal system of arithmetic for gym bros is plate math. Train for even a little while, and you quickly learn to identify the weight on the bar from the plates loaded on either end.

Berlinale first look: Flatland is an intriguingly kitsch South African western | Sight & Sound
There’s something of a running gag in Flatland involving the outwardly hard-bitten, seen-it-all detective Beauty Cuba (Faith Baloyi, the film’s most grounding performer) never failing to make time to tune into her favourite ‘soapie’, which seems to revolve around a single neverending lovers’ spat over infidelity.

Öndög opens with an automobile’s-eye-view of the Mongolian plain, tall grass and roaming horses lit up by headlights as we move not too urgently onward. Two men talk from behind the camera, one casually telling a story – of a wolf hunter accidentally killing a dog – capped off with a surprisingly weighty warning: our human eyes do not always show us the truth.
