Kettlebells are weights with handles that you may or may not have seen lying around your gym. It's like “a cast iron weight that looks like a basketball with a suitcase handle.” Invented in Russia and used for decades by strongmen, kettlebells offer users a wider range of motion than dumbbells that sit in the palm of the hand, and they also better simulate the way we carry things in our daily lives, say teachers and students who’ve gotten hooked on the workouts. In recent years, these strange-looking weights have been working their way into a variety of American workouts for men and women, ranging from intense Kettlebell Kombat workouts to workout DVDs and dance class routines.
