Has any one bought russian kettlebells and are they worth the price and do they really work?
I am wondering if I should buy a kettlebell for exercise is it worth it or should I just use free weights..
Kettle bells are fantastic if you have the money. Honestly you can do a lot of the same movements with dumbbells or medicine balls with handles and of course they don’t cost as much. I highly recommend you following a traditional free weight strength training program for 8 to 12 weeks to establish a baseline of fitness then venture into buying some videos on kettle bell training and integrate the dumbbells into it. You could buy one or a set slowly over time as you train with traditional weights.

I had a kettlebell, but I use the freeweights more, along with logs, and large rocks.I started off light and slowly but carefuly,I progressed where now I 1rep deadlift 806lbs. See what works best for you. Have Fun.
