Customer Reviews
Not if you're seriously into Kettlebell training
I'm not an authority on kettlebells, but I have been using them regularly for a couple of years now. I started out with GoFit's kettlebells because of the price point compared to Dragondoor and others, and also the fact that I could actually go into a store and try one out.
While they are fine if you're starting out, or doing exercises like Windmills, Renegade Rows, swings, the handles are of pretty poor quality, and make moves like slingshots or even snatches quite painful. I've had painful callouses due to them. I would not write this review otherwise, but since the real power of kettlebell training comes from the high rep, ballistic, full range of motion exercises such as snatches, swings, slingshots etc., I believe that when you are ready to use this as a serious tool for conditioning, that you consider a kettlebell that has better handles, and distribution of weight.
Also - the PVC coating on the kettlebell is really painful if you have hair on your arms and try to do cleans.
Ok kettlebell, but really, invest in one of the original ones. I had 2 of these when i started out, and I dont use them anymore.
Easy home exercise option
I've been working out with this kettlebell for the last several weeks. It's easy to use, easy to store, the workout is more strenuous that I imagined and I'm already seeing a difference. There are enough exercises that each workout can be different and I can see this becoming a long-term habit.
Well worth the money!!
Great 35 LB kettlebell
My friends gave me this as a present when I told them I was starting to use kettlebells for exercise. While Dragon Door makes some really great ones, they charge over $30 shipping and have no retail options. I am giving 4 stars only because the accompanying DVD and booklet are not detailed compared to Enter The Kettlebell! Strength Secret of The Soviet Supermen or From Russia With Tough Love. Nevertheless, it is a worthwhile buy for the novice or intermediate kettlebell lifter.
