In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The exact weight you should start with depends on how much weight-training experience you have and the size and weight of your body. The more experience you have lifting weights, the heavier kettlebell you can start with. Even if you're an experienced weightlifter, you may want to start with a lighter kettlebell until you get used to exercising with it. Regular cast iron kettlebells have bigger handles that you can grab onto with 2 hands, which is helpful when you first start exercising with them. Avoid using competition kettlebells, which have smaller handles that can only be gripped with 1 hand. It's important that you know how to grip a kettlebell correctly so you don't injure yourself. There are a variety of ways you can hold a kettlebell, and the grip you should use depends on the exercise you're doing. Some common grips are: Single-handed grip: Wrap your fingers around the handle on the kettlebell so your palm is facing in toward your body. Double-handed grip: The same as a single-handed grip, but with both hands. Goblet: Hold the kettlebell at your chest so each of your hands is gripping a side of the handle. Keep your elbows tucked in at your sides. Racked: Grip the kettlebell with 1 hand and hold it up near your chest so the bulk of the kettlebell is resting on your forearm. Tuck your elbow in at your side. If you're new to using kettlebells, you'll want to perfect your form before you move on to heavier weights. Start by practicing kettlebell exercises with light weights. When you get the form down and you feel confident with the motions, then you can progress to heavier weights. Stand up with your feet shoulder width apart, holding the kettlebell in one hand. Move the kettle bell from hand to hand in a circle around your body, while keeping your core as stable as possible. Start slow with a light kettlebell to get used to changing hands. You may drop your kettlebell a few times as you get used to the motion. Aim for 4 sets of 20 reps each.
Summary: Start with a kettlebell that weighs 1525 pounds (6.811.3kg). Exercise with a regular cast iron kettlebell when you're starting out. Practice the different ways of holding a kettlebell before your workout. Progress slowly so you don't injure yourself. Try Around-the-Worlds to warm up with your kettlebell.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Your ficus needs well-draining soil, preferably peat mix, to prevent it from becoming waterlogged. Add soil until the pot is about 1/4 to 1/2 of the way fullyou will fill it up completely as you transplant the ficus. You can buy well-draining soil mixes at most nurseries or garden centers. Check the packaging for "well-draining" or ask an employee for assistance. To check soil drainage, dig a 1 foot (0.30m) hole into the dirt and fill it with water. If the soil drains completely within 5-15 minutes, it is well-draining soil. Make sure that the new pot also has a few holes in the bottom to aid drainage. Use your hands to loosen the root ball as much as you can without breaking it. This will help the ficus absorb more water and nutrients when you transplant it and adapt better to its new container. Position the ficus tree upright into the pot. Fill the rest of the pot with soil until you reach the soil level of the plant's original level. Don't make your soil level any higher than the original container, which can suffocate the roots. Ficus trees prefer temperatures of around 6075F (1624C), or around room temperature. They also prefer bright, but not direct, sunlight. Whether you place your ficus tree indoors or outdoors, choose a spot with with moderate temperatures and lighting. Avoid spots with sudden temperature changes or cold drafts. Near a closed window, for example, is better than by an open door.
Summary: Fill the pot partway with well-draining soil. Loosen the roots before replanting the ficus. Place your ficus into the pot and fill it with soil. Place the pot in a spot with mild temperatures and bright lighting.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you would like to watch the snail for a couple days, then release it back into your garden, something like a jam or pickle jar with holes poked would work pretty well. But your snails could get cut on the metal. So instead of a lid, you could use a piece of cheesecloth fitted over the rim of the container with an elastic band. Keep in mind that snails can climb vertical surfaces, and will attempt to escape if the container does not have a lid. If you're keeping the snail for more than a few days, use a container that provides enough space for its size. Only baby snails or the smallest adult varieties can be kept long term in a plastic container. Most require a larger tank to stay clean and healthy. You can purchase a terrarium at a pet store made for this purpose. Use a 5 gallon (19 L) tank or larger so the snail has room to move around. If you have several snails or intend to take care of young snails if the adult ones reproduce, get a larger tank. Just like humans, snails inhale air to use the oxygen, and exhale carbon dioxide. Your terrarium needs holes to let air in, ideally on multiple sides to allow for better air circulation. Some people have reported snails becoming more active when air was allowed to exit through a tiny gap in the bottom of the terrarium. As long as the tank is kept moist, many garden snails will be fairly resilient when it comes to temperatures. However, they will be most active and safe at room temperature. Keep them in the shade during hot weather, and avoid exposing them to freezing temperatures. To reduce the chance of harmful bacteria, pesticides, and other dangers, purchase terrarium soil from a pet shop. The next best option is to use natural earth from a garden not treated with pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Put the soil in a layer at the base of the terrarium, fully covering the glass or plastic. Avoid potting soil for plants, which can contain chemicals harmful to snails. Place a layer of sphagnum moss, peat, compost, or vermiculite on top of the soil. This traps moisture inside the soil, which creates good conditions for snails. Put objects in the tank that the snails can hide in and climb onto, which will make them more comfortable and more interesting to watch. At most pet stores they have fake logs for small animals to crawl through or short hamster tubes that snails might enjoy. You might find material you can use in your garden as well! Never use rocks in your terrarium as snails could fall off the sides of the glass and break their shell. Bark and sticks usually fall apart after a few weeks, so you will need to replace them. Never use cardboard ornaments for your snails, as it will grow moss and fungi, resulting in your snail's death. Snails are surprisingly strong for their size, and are able to climb to the top of almost any tank. A lid that can fasten closed with a latch will probably prevent them from escaping. If your terrarium's lid does not have a latch, weigh down the lid with a pile of books or other heavy objects. . Look for snails in muddy garden areas, old plant pots, or other moist places. If you can't see any, place a few pieces of fresh vegetables in your garden and check back later to see if there are snails eating them. Heavy rain often drives snails out into the open, so you'll have a better chance of success if you look during or following a rainstorm. Garden snails are almost always safe to handle, but it's a good idea to wash your hands before and after touching them to minimize the chance of harm to your or your snail. If you do not want to touch the snails, wear gloves.
Summary:
Use any container with air holes for short term projects. Get a larger tank or terrarium such as a Kritter Keeper for long term pets. Make sure air can enter the terrarium. Keep the tank room temperature. Purchase terrarium soil or earth from outside. Add a layer of natural material on top of the soil. Decorate your snail's home. Attach a heavy or fastened lid.
