Accessories such as the kettlebell can help you build muscle mass, strengthen your cardiovascular system and boost your self-confidence.

The benefits of kettlebell training

The kettlebell can be used to work on a number of areas, including abdominal muscles, physical strength, cardiovascular capacity and endurance. What's more, kettlebell exercises help you burn calories and, consequently, lose weight. At DECATHLON, we offer a varied selection of kettlebells, made from cast iron and rubber.

How to choose your kettlebell?

Your choice of kettlebell depends essentially on your level and the intensity of your training. Tip for kettlebell beginners: opt for a light weight to familiarize yourself with the equipment and master its use. Gradually increase the weight. At DECATHLON, the minimum weight for kettlebells is 2 kg, and for some models it can be as much as 6, 8, 12, 24 or even 40 kg. If in doubt, don't hesitate to ask our experts for advice!
