Bedtime Story of Kettlebell - 25.5.2022
History of kettlebell:
The kettlebell (girya) as we know it today is nothing like it was in the olden days, in fact, the kettlebell was not invented for exercise, but rather as a weight for weighing crops, grains plus other goods. It was called a Pood / пуд.
A Pood is approximately 16.38 kilograms or 36.11 pounds. The Pood was first mentioned in a number of 12th-century documents.
Over the many years the Kettlebell has evolved drastically and is now only used as an exercise tool.
Good night warriors.
See you tomorrow in kettlebell class at 7.30pm.
