Kettlebell



The kettlebell or girya (Russian: гиревой) is a traditional Russian cast iron weight looking somewhat like a cannonball with a handle. A favorite tool of the strongmen of old, the kettlebell has enjoyed a revival of late due largely to the efforts of strength and flexibility coach Pavel Tsatsouline, with many companies now following suit, beginning to produce their own brands of kettlebells and kettlebell exercise programs.
