Fitness experts weigh in.
, an ACE-certified personal trainer, fitness professional, and founder of Be By Kate Training & Coaching, shared some additional guidance on how to safely and effectively incorporate kettlebells into your workouts. "Core engagement is key. When there is a weight pulling you away from your center, you increase your chance of injury. Keeping the core activated is going to help keep your body in alignment and is particularly important for your back safety,” she explains.
“The weight should be a challenge, but not so much that your form is compromised. Take a break or change to a lighter weight before letting anything happen to your form,” advises Cherichello. “Additionally, before adding any weight to an exercise, practice the exercise without the weight so as to ensure you have the form down first.
Meissner recommends buying either powder-coated and competition kettlebells made of steel or cast iron. Although they will cost more than plastic ones, they will last a lifetime. “Powder-coated kettlebells are cast iron and the heavier they get, the larger the bell gets. They are powder coated so they feel nice in the hand and move easily,” he says. “Competition style are all a regulation size for sports, so no matter the weight they are all the same size.
