What is the difference between cast iron and steel kettlebell?
The training rules for rigid kettlebells use classic cast iron kettlebells. Steel competitive style kettlebells are born for competitive competitions. Competitive kettlebell handles are smaller to extend the grip endurance during the game. The handle of the classic cast iron kettlebell is larger and thicker, which requires higher grip strength. However, the weight of cast iron kettlebells varies greatly. The larger the volume and center of gravity of the cast iron kettlebell, the more difficult it is to control.
The steel sports kettlebell has the same volume and shape within 48kg. The weight is distinguished by different colors. Therefore, the appearance of the competitive style is more fashionable than the classic cast iron. This is also the reason why domestic gymnasiums are generally equipped with competitive kettlebells.
The classic cast iron kettlebells are all black in tone and can be decorated with at most a color circle. The appearance is simpler. Although the shape of the kettlebell is mainly one-handed holding. Hand swinging with a single kettlebell is a very good basic training. Men who use competitive kettlebells may not be able to squeeze into the handle with their hands. This specific action is more suitable for classic cast iron kettlebells with wider handles.
Note: For unnecessary trouble, to train the hard style of the Pavel genre, you must choose the classic cast iron kettlebell. Kettlebells that are not suitable for use include: competitive style kettlebells, adjustable weight kettlebells, rubber-coated kettlebells, special-shaped kettlebells (human heads, gorilla heads, dumbbells with handles, etc.). Because these kettlebells limit the correct movement of hard styles.
