Kettlebells Regal

Professional competition kettlebells for competitions

What distinguishes our competition kettlebells from regular kettlebells? Most kettlebells aren't standardized in terms of weight and dimensions. For typical fitness training, this makes no difference. However, anyone who wants to train professionally or is preparing for a kettlebell competition should use professional competition kettlebells. While classic kettlebells are made of cast iron and come in different sizes, competition kettlebells are made of steel and, despite varying weights, always have the same dimensions. Depending on the weight, the kettlebells are filled differently, and thanks to high-quality manufacturing, there are hardly any weight variations – perfect for fair competition. With a competition kettlebell from our online shop, you train according to international competition standards – including color coding according to the guidelines of the International Kettlebell Federation (IKF) for quick weight identification. The uniform dimensions also ensure easy and ergonomic handling – from the clean and jerk to the snatch.

Frequently asked questions about kettlebells:

How heavy should my first kettlebell be?

It depends on the exercise, not on you. Your hips are stronger than your shoulders: for the swing, women start at 8–12 kg, men at 16–20 kg. For the clean & press it's 6–8 kg and 12–16 kg. As a rule of thumb, you swing about twice what you press overhead. If you already train strength regularly, start one step higher – if you're coming back from rehab, one step lower. Reference weights for six exercises

Cast iron or competition kettlebell – which one suits you?

Cast iron bells get bigger with every kilo, and the handle gets thicker. Competition kettlebells measure 21 cm with a 3.5 cm handle at every weight – the 32 kg sits in your hand like the 16 kg, only the filling changes. If that consistency matters to you, go for competition. If it doesn't, put the money into a second bell instead. How the types compare

Is one kettlebell enough, or do I need a set?

One is enough to start with. Two cover everyday training – one for swings, a lighter one for everything overhead. Three to five is what most people train with in the long run.

What weights do you offer for your kettlebells?

Our product range includes various kettlebells weighing 4 kg, 6 kg, 8 kg, 10 kg, 12 kg, 14 kg, 16 kg, 18 kg, 20 kg, 24 kg, 28 kg, 32 kg, 36 kg, 40 kg, 48 kg, 56 kg, 60 kg, 64 kg, 80 kg up to 92 kg.

Does cross equip offer kettlebells for competitions?

Yes, in addition to regular kettlebells, we also offer high-quality and standardized competition kettlebells, which are ideal for professional training or preparation for competitions.

What are the dimensions of competition kettlebells?

They measure 21 cm across with a 3.5 cm handle – at 8 kg just like at 32 kg. Only the filling changes, not the shape. Cast iron bells, by contrast, grow with the weight: the 32 kg is noticeably bulkier than the 8 kg, and the handle gets thicker.
