7 stones comes in about 45kg so M60's take you to 15kg over and M70s to 25kg over

I'd recommend the M60's.

Same, the M60's will be better for you. Going too far over the 10kg rule can slow progress right down. M60's are 15kg over, that gives you some room to grow into them and will be better for learning compared to M70's. Being fit helps with bocking but the only real sports that really help with technique are gymnastics, parkour and trampolining.
