The kettlebell is a cast-iron or cast steel weight, resembling a cannonball with a handle, used to perform all types of exercises, including but not limited to ballistic exercises that combine cardiovascular, strength and flexibility training. They are also the primary equipment used in the weight lifting sport of kettlebell lifting.
The Russian girya was a type of metal weight, primarily used to weigh crops in the 18th century. The use of such weights by circus strongmen is recorded for the 19th century. They began to be used for recreational and competition strength athletics in Russia and Europe in the late 19th century. The birth of competitive kettlebell lifting or girevoy sport is dated to 1885, with the founding of the 'Circle for Amateur Athlethics'.
Russian kettlebells are traditionally measured in weight by pood, corresponding to 16.38 kilograms (36.1 lb).The English term kettlebell has been in use since the early 20th century.
Similar weights used in Classical Greece were the haltere, comparable to the modern kettlebell in terms of movements. Another comparable instrument was used by Shaolin monks in China.
