If you’re a beginner, we suggest just using your body weight to begin with (so you can focus on your form and technique). When you progress to weights, you should try to pick a weight that challenges you but doesn’t break you – this is totally relative to your ability.
We use a mixture of different weights in our classes – ‘light’, ‘medium’, ‘medium/heavy’ and ‘heavy’. Light weights range from 2.5kg to 5kg, medium from 5kg to 10kg, medium/heavy from 6kg to 12.5kg and heavy from 10kg to 17.5kg and above.
