It would be great to have “Kettlebells” as it’s own strain activity to choose from when entering your workout into the Strength Trainer. Can you add this to the list of activities?
Hey @michelleyoung,
Thanks for calling this out, having kettlebells as their own activity in Strength Trainer makes a lot of sense given how different those sessions can feel compared to traditional lifting. Being able to label a workout specifically as kettlebells could make it easier to review strain and understand how those dynamic, high output sessions impact recovery over time.
It’s a solid idea, especially for members who use kettlebells regularly and want clearer context in their training history. We appreciate the feedback and will pass it along to our product team.
Let’s please make this happen.
Thank you again team!
Hi Whoop Team,
Could you please give us an update on when Kettlebell will be added as a strain activity?
As someone who trains primarily with kettlebells, not being able to log this correctly is a frustrating gap — it’s one of the most widely used training tools out there. As a new member, it’s also a little surprising to see strain activities like Chess, DJ, Dedicated Parenting, and Hot Dog Challenge already included, while a fundamental exercise like kettlebell training is missing. I’d love to understand the rationale and get a sense of the timeline for adding it.
I also want to forward this.
I just train with kettlebells and it seems that there are some clear kettlebell exercises which I cannot find.
e.g. double kettlebell clean and press
double kettlebell front squat
double kettlebell swing
I would have thought there would be a lot of whoopers training with kettlebells, particularly as it’s hard with other wearables like watches and rings.
