Are Kettlebells really worth it?

Question

I work at Play It Again Sports and we just got in a major order of kettlebells and I'm thinking of buying one because i hear they are really good for your core.

The only problem is that they run for two bucks a pound and that seems a little pricey. Does anybody know if it is really worth 2 bucks a pound? I'm looking to maybe get a 20 pounder so that will be about 40 bucks and i'm not sure if there is that much of an advantage over a regular dumbbell.

Answer 1

Yeah kettlebells are a really good workout, I don't know about for 2 bucks a pound though, that's pretty pricey.  I would recommend you just get a gym membership because most gyms will have them there.  Look up some workouts on youtube and then do them at the gym.  Maybe purchase one for home use.

Answer 2

They offer a different angle, but all exercise depends on you rather than the equipment.
