get a 16kg kettlebell to start with; the CAP brand linked isnt the best but its a decent & cheap starting bell. I started with the same bell, but don't really like the smooth finish on them, so once you are ready to move up in weight i would look to other brands.

Buy a copy of Pavel's Simple & Sinister book and follow the program. It is a great easy to follow program consisting of daily swings and Turkish Get Ups.

As for diet, try and eat "clean"; meals cooked mostly at home with known ingredients consisting mostly of proteins, veggies and some fat to keep you full between meals. Splurge with some potatoes or rice every now but don't over do it on the carbs.

to keep on track you could enter your workouts into a daily journal or log them into fitocracy. It is great to see your numbers improve as the weeks go on.


Edit: i forgot to mention S&S takes roughly 30minutes of your time daily, so discipline wise there is no excuse that you don't have time to squeeze in a workout

the 16kg/35lb cap kettlebells are very good, i suggest starting with one bell

that was my first kettlebell (then i bought a second one), i've had it for two years and i used it mostly for my hiit workouts

smooth handle, easy to grip espcially if you're new

For myself, to avoid distraction, I tend to make the morning my time for grinding out programming work. When I get deep into programming work I completely avoid social media / reddit / shows / games until I put in about an hour of work. Normally about 30 minutes to an hour in, I no longer want to do anything but program, so I don't worry too much about distractions. I always have pen and paper / post-it notes on hand for writing down ideas. Whenever I hit roadblocks in programming, I try to stop coding for a bit and will workout or go take a shower(if I've not had one that day). I tend to measure work time in the amount of podcasts I've listened to.

If your looking to get in shape now that you work from home, setup a standing desk. For convenience I leave all my workout equipment next to my desk. Use whatever workout equipment you will actually use, but I recommend a couple Kettlebells and a hand trainer. I find that kettlebells tend to be great for loosening up my back and the hand trainer prevents wrist strain. I use other stuff too if your interested.

If you have any diet problems, working from home is the perfect chance to start fixing them. Working from home also allows you to fix any sleep problems you might have too; 8 hours a night, every night, will make a big difference if your the type to stay up late and get up early.

I feel like I could never say this enough: Kettlebells. With one 35 lb. kettlebell, even ripped dudes can get a hell of a workout. Assuming you're not ripped a 25 lb. kettlebell could make you a damn BRUTE. Assuming you're not a DUDE a 10 lb. Kettlebell could make you a lean, mean, fighting machine. They're incredible. I use them for my MMA workouts, training for FUNCTIONAL strength, and just to look like a badass swinging around a FRIGGIN' CANNONBALL for a "workout". Haha. They allow you to build strength in a functional ways because they're not what we call a "standard load". You're forcing your body to move something which is oddly shaped, with a handle that isn't close to the center of the load's gravity. Even basic workouts take on a new twist as your body grows stronger to seek to balance the weight. It's even the perfect tool for cardio workouts!

TL;DR: Get (a) kettlebell(s). Looks badass, creates functional strength, and cardio.

If you're a Heavy Hitter, this is the kettlebell for you.

If you're a Beginning Beast, this is your style.

I bought a 40# CAP brand kettlebell through amazon a few weeks ago and it was free shipping. I think it still applies. They're a good quality too. The price is about the same as Christian's fitness factory.
