Kettle Weights and Bells – Is There A Difference?
I got a question from one of my kettle weights blog readers in my email today. I thought why not throw it back out to the rest of you to answer…Just put the answer in the comments box below. Thanks guys!
I am thinking of Purchasing some kettle bells but i don’t know whether or not it is worth it if i already have loads of different weights. what do you think – is it actually worth buying kettle bells or just doing the same sort of workout using the weights.
what do you think? can i do the same workout as the kettle bell using the weights.
i personally think that i need a kettle bell but i am getting nagged by my husband because of all of the excercise equipement that i have – i just love working out and every thing about health and fitness.
any way looking forward to hearing from you soon.
thanks

Hi,
To answer your question yes and no. You can do a majority of the routines/exercise designed for KB’s with dumbbell. However, for some you need the original. I use them with my boxers all the time and would suggest getting a set or two. They can be expansive. I found a product you can make a kettle bell out of small 1, 2 – 5 pound weights. then bold through onto a handle. I use two of them and just change the weight.
