It looks like you can get several "bells" for the price of 1

It looks bulky, personally I like the Physically smaller cast iron kettlebells - much easier to swing about |

I've been interested in getting something like that for a while but the version I liked was expensive. The version you're looking at doesn't look very flexible as there doesn't seem to be a way to make the bar shorter without cutting it or affecting the handle. Without that, weights will move around unless it is full. |

The way this one screws on means plates will always be tight, just not worth paying £76 for! NewMe Fitness Adjustable Kettlebell Handle… amzn.eu |

Does it have a max weight on there EvilPixie? I couldn’t see one and I’d be very cautious if they don’t commit to one. The last thing you want is for it to fail at the top of a swing and launch the plates into orbit (or your neighbour’s greenhouse!).

I’m tempted by the concept as i’be got plenty of 1 inch plates getting limited use now, and only own 1 kettlebell but I’d want one that looks like it’s going to manage the weight a bit more convincingly. They look like they might be good for farmers carry too (in concept at least) which would be another selling point for me. |

I also saw there was a "handle" for dumbbells for me though my largest kettlebell is only 6kg so I would need to spend 2-3 times as much to buy the heavier weights. I have thought of doing a 1mth contract at a gym I have heard of but not been to but again it assumes they have the range plus the availability which was why I was looking at this |
