If you’re considering starting Russian Kettlebell Training (aka Girevoy Sport), you’ll need to make sure that your instructor is certified!

Plastic Kettlebell Sets

Originally they were going to sell for R2475 (R22.50/kg). However, I have decided that the price will be changed. You pay for the 2-16kg, and get the 18kg & 20kg for free.
