Long term keep an eye on the Middle Aisle Magic at your local Aldi. They occasionally have kettlebells and they’re decent and cheaper than anywhere else for comparable quality. Short term I think I’m going to have a better loot at the options for these handles. |

Aldi had kettlebells a couple of weeks ago. Don't know if there'd be any left by now.

Thanks I might have a look My last one was one of the vinyl covered ones - had a damaged surface (looked like a drop) so reduced to £10 (? might have been less) |

What is it you want the bells for?

Pass! I’m doing a different program with the six pack revolution which used kettle bells for strength! |

Yes, I’m thinking cleans and snatches might be a bit painful with all those sharp corners. If you do want to buy any, keep an eye on Facebook marketplace for anyone local to you selling ones they bought but can’t be bothered to use

Absolutely FDNB, those kind of handles are infamous for taking lumps off your arms on cleans & snatches. They’re not great for pressing either. If you’re looking for an adjustable bell IMO, you’re better getting the type with a shell where the weight is adjusted internally. |
