suitcase deadlifts, single leg deadlifts, sumo squats, Cassock lunges, regular lunges (stepping back), hip thrusts
I have 10,15, 20 and 35 lb bells and a belt that makes it easy to do hip thrusts with them. I need to get a 50lb - hopefully soon.

I have to look up some of those!
Thanks.
I love kettlebells! I started with just swings (which are amazing, of course), but slow strength work is also very satisfying.
I have one. I've yet to start... 😅
For swings, make sure you look at several tutorials first. Many people hyperextend their lower backs when they swing (at the top of the swing you need a bit of a hip thrust but it can end with a nice firm glute/neutral pelvis rather than with the pelvis way forward, which can put strain on the lower back).
In any case, kettlebells are awesome! so much you can do with them. I didn't add to the early list Bulgarian split squats 🙂
Keep us posted!
