Weider PowerBell

The original kettlebells were cast iron weights that somewhat resembled a cannonball with a handle attached. These weights have been used for strength training in Russia since ancient times. It wasn’t until the year 2000, however, that kettlebells were introduced in America. Since then, Weider Fitness designed and created a more convenient and efficient type of kettlebell and named it the PowerBell.
What makes the Weider PowerBell different from other kettlebells?
The Weider PowerBell is actually a set of seven weights combined in one. With this kettlebell style, there is no need to spend a fortune on an entire set of kettlebell weights. There is also no need for a lot of space in which to store the weights. With the space-saving design of the Weider PowerBell, your workout area can be kept tidy with very little effort.
The small Weider PowerBell unit quickly and easily adjusts from 5 pounds up to 20 pounds. There are six weights that weigh 2.5 pounds each. When you add all six weights to the 5-pound handle, you get 20 pounds of kettlebell weight to work with. All you have to do to change the amount of weight on this convenient kettlebell set is pull the lock and twist to add or remove weights.
For more serious users there is a Weider 40 lb. PowerBell Set.
What are the fitness benefits of the Weider PowerBell?
The Weider PowerBell provides a great method to integrate the entire body as you workout. If used properly, every muscle will be engaged during exercise with the PowerBell. Not only will you become stronger and build more lean muscle, but you will also get a good cardio workout and burn excess fat. After a hard PowerBell workout, your body will continue to burn calories at an accelerated rate as the muscles go through the repair process.
Follow the instructions on the Weider PowerBell workout DVD to learn how to safely and efficiently train with this kettlebell. A Certified Personal Trainer will explain step-by-step on the video the proper techniques and exercises that you can do with PowerBell.
There are specific Weider PowerBell workouts for targeting designated muscles in your body. You may wish to work on abdominals one day and hamstrings the next, or you may prefer to focus on total body workouts during each exercise session. Over 1,000 strength and cardio exercises may be performed with the PowerBell, so you never have to be bored with the same old routines.
If you’re just beginning a fitness program, you should start out by using only the five-pound PowerBell handle. As your fitness level improves, add more weight to get a more intense workout. With consistent kettlebell workout sessions, it won’t be long until you see impressive results! The Weider PowerBell is a great tool to help you get the body you’ve always wanted!
