Kettlebells are a
traditional cast iron weight
(like a cannonball) with a
handle that originated from
Russia. The kettlebell is
universally known for
being a very useful and
effective training tool.
Kettlebell workouts can be
tailored to improve your
strength, endurance, agility
and balance. They can also
be suitable for men and women
of all ages!
Kettlebells come in a range
of weights as seen below. The
recommended
starting weight for an average
male is 16kg and 8kg for a
female. Depending on
previous training you may be
ready for the next progression
quite quickly
however the lighter balls are
still useful for warm-ups and
high-rep kettlebell
exercises.
