These cannonball-looking weights originated in Russia and have been around for hundreds of years, but they're finally becoming more mainstream. Working out with kettle bells combines cardio and resistance training so be ready for an intense routine!

  2. Shades of the old leather "medicine balls" they used to throw about in the roaring twenties!

    In fact I think I remember those lo-tech things in elementary school. The handle is a nice modern touch. :)
