This will depend as much on your workout style as it will your strength. For cardio, go as light as possible – around 2kg. For beginners looking to build up strength with squats and swinging, look for anything within the 8-10kg range. Comfort of the handle Unsheathe the JaxJox from its relatively large box and the first thing to hit you is its size. Anyone who spends any time in the gym will know that the majority of kettlebells are fashioned from cast iron or something equally brutish, but they come in a spread if shapes and sizes.

However, the numerous workout videos do highlight just how versatile the thing is, with everything from rapid ten minute abs workouts to full-on 45-minute lung busters already live in the app.

Finally, and slightly nannying-ly, a kettlebell isn't like a treadmill or an exercise bike, where the risk of injury among the uninitiated is fairly low. Here, you're literally swinging 19kg of metal between your legs and it's very easy to get things wrong. Call me a traditionalist but for that reason alone, I'd strongly suggest trying a good ol' fashioned, face-to-face class with a trained instructor before delving into the realm of JaxJox… JaxJox KettlebellConnect review: also consider Kettlebells can add resistance to a wide variety of lower body moves in place of dumbbells, barbells, or medicine balls.

For a full studio experience (and no worrying about scuffing the floor), invest in JaxJox’s clever system.

They’re used for both full-body exercises and unilateral work. Upper body exercises

As a rule of thumb, beginners should start with a single bell as they build up their confidence and ability, before moving on to two. It is perfectly possible to do most kettlebell exercises with just one bell, but those wanting to ramp up their fitness and strength as much as possible will be able to do this more effectively with a set. Material coating the kettlebell There's no ignoring the dollar here. The asking price of the JaxJox KettlebellConnect would see most people in a well-equipped gym for a year or more. However, its size and dimensions will likely deter those who are seriously into their kettlebell classes and I wasn't convinced about the way it handled when performing an overhead press or anything that required the kettlebell resting on the forearm - it just wasn't comfortable. Textured, wider handles will be more comfortable to hold, especially if your hands are on the larger side. Single kettlebell or a set?All kettlebells will have a flat bottom to rest on the floor, but many also have flat-ish sides to make certain movements, such as the overhead press or Turkish getup, easier on your forearms. Think about what you’ll be using your kettlebell for and whether a more ergonomic shape would be helpful as you’re using it. Your budget Lunges: Hold one bell in each hand – allowing them to hang by your sides – while stepping in and out of a lunge position.
