Kettlebells while won't make you shredded or that strong on their own, can be a perfection addition as a fun "sport" after your workouts.

nothing meme about FUNCTIONAL strength anon

>it's a dumbbell with an eccentric lifting point
Hmm, you tell me, do dumbbells work? Does M = F*d? Does I = m*k^2?

I mainly use them for martial arts (BJJ) but i was curious what /fit/ was thinking

Good accessory movements. Good for stability, control type shit

ok for cardio and bicep curls

The way the handle is on a dumbbell, most kettlebell-derived exercises would be extremely uncomfortable
