Kettlebell Rack

How to adjust

  1. There are no adjustable parts — you select the kettlebell size/weight from the rack.

How to use

  1. Select a kettlebell from the rack using a proper deadlift-style lift (hinge at the hips, flat back).
  2. Carry the bell to an open area before you train (swings, carries, presses), leaving space in front, behind and overhead.
  3. Return the kettlebell to its spot on the rack when finished.

Safety notes

  • Use a hip-hinge with a flat back when lifting a kettlebell off a low shelf, the same as picking up any heavy floor-level object, to protect your lower back.
  • Make sure you have clear swing and overhead space before starting a kettlebell exercise near the rack.
  • Return kettlebells to the rack after use so they aren't a trip hazard on the floor.
  • If a bell turns out to be heavier than you can handle or your grip starts slipping, hinge and set it down on the floor next to your feet before letting go — don't fight to hold it and never toss it back toward the rack.
