FAQ

• What exercises are kettlebells usually used for?
  Kettlebells can be used for all kinds of exercises but they are especially well suited to things like swings, squats and lunges, and all manner of ab training. More than any of that, though, they are some of the most powerful tools available when building a functional fitness program. For more on how to make the best use of your kettlebells, check out our Training Club.
  
• What are ZIVA RPU Kettlebells made from?
  Our RPU Kettlebells, like much of our premium exercise equipment, feature a solid steel core wrapped in an RPU - rubberized polyurethane - cover that is scratch- and scuff-resistant. The kettlebells' handles feature a chrome coating that keeps them protected and challenges users' grip for more intense workouts.
  
• I'm just starting out on my fitness journey. Are the ZIVA RPU Kettlebells right for me?
  Absolutely!
  ZIVA kettlebells are great for beginners and elite athletes alike. We recommend those starting out on their fitness journey start with lighter free weights and work up as they build strength, power, and confidence through their workouts.
  
• What's so special about RPU?
  A couple of things!
  First, it's a very long-lasting, hard-wearing material perfectly suited to intense workouts. Sweat on it, drop it, throw it (actually, maybe that's not the best idea), and it will retain its original shape and appearance without scuffs or scrapes. That's crucial for kettlebells that stay looking great for a long time.
