Bowflex adjustable kettlebell, 8–40 lb

Technical details

For home workouts where floor space is limited, the Bowflex SelectTech adjustable kettlebell replaces a set of separate weights with one dial-selected unit. It offers six settings from 8 to 40 lb, so you can change the load without moving between individual kettlebells.

The handle is designed for a comfortable, secure grip, and new JRNY members can try the service free for two months. The product information doesn’t explain what JRNY includes, so treat the trial as an extra rather than a reason to choose the kettlebell.

Getting the most from it

This format suits someone who wants several kettlebell loads close at hand without storing six separate pieces. For example, you could set it down beside your workout space, select a lighter listed weight for one movement, then turn the dial to a heavier setting for another. The practical advantage is fewer individual weights to organise, a conventional set may still appeal more if you prefer dedicated kettlebells or need options between the listed settings.

Te encaja si you want a single adjustable kettlebell for varied home sessions and the six available loads cover your needs. The stated settings are 8, 12, 20, 25, 35, and 40 lb, so the jumps aren’t evenly spaced and there’s no information here about intermediate selections.

Usage tips

Use the selection dial to choose one of the listed weights before starting a movement, and make sure the dial is set to the load you intend to lift. Since the available steps vary, it may help to plan your session around those specific settings rather than expecting to increase the weight in small, regular increments.

The ergonomic handle is intended to provide a comfortable, secure lift, but grip comfort is personal. If you usually choose a kettlebell by handle feel, this is one detail you’ll want to assess in person when possible. Its adjustable design is aimed at consolidating weights, not at providing a full range of finely graduated loads.

Three specific questions

Which weights can you select? The listed options are 8, 12, 20, 25, 35, and 40 lb.

How do you change the load? A weight-selection dial is used to switch between the available settings.

Does the JRNY trial apply to everyone? The product details specify a free two-month trial for new members, they don’t provide further eligibility terms.

Before buying

The key trade-off is flexibility versus precision. One adjustable unit takes the place of six individual kettlebells, which can make storage simpler, but you’re limited to the six stated loads. Puede no ser la mejor opción si your training depends on smaller weight changes, or if you want a separate kettlebell for each load. The product details also don’t state its dimensions or weight-selection increments beyond the listed settings, so those needs can’t be assessed from the available information. Choose it for a more compact setup when its six options fit your routine, choose a traditional set if having more load choices matters more than consolidating equipment.
