The kettlebell was first used by athletes over 2000 years ago in Greece, where the kettlebell is thought to have originated. It has since been used by athletes, trainers and 'strongmen' in many cultures and countries.

Kettlebells come in only three sizes: 5, 10 & 20 pounds. While some people consider the kettlebell to be similar to dumbells, the fact is that with kettlebells the motions are not confined to a single, two-dimensional plane as they are with dumbells. Instead, kettlebell exercises employ all three planes of motion simultaneously to give you a well-toned, well-balanced physique that represents great functional strength without bulky size.
