I've had kettlebells, and I've lifted weights. But to be clear, I never said I have a "problem" -- I have a reasonable weight, and at times I've been in the top half of the worldwide rankings on Concept 2's site. I'm just saying that rowing isn't (solely, if we're going to be picky) the reason I have a reasonable weight.
Well here’s your problem. You should’ve bought barbell 20 years ago. Or at least a couple of kettlebells.
