DryBell - Heavy Duty Portable Kettlebell Dumbbell - Sand Weight

I bought a couple of these before a Xmas break to the Canaries - I have to say they performed pretty well. I can’t imagine using these with water - that feels like a kind of madness….- but with damp sand I borrowed from the beach they worked a treat - I filled 2 of the 16kg ones and they were more like 18kg.Because they become quite long when you fill them they can become awkward to do shoulder presses but half full, 10kg, I’m sure the size would have been fine. I used them for squats, adapted presses,overhead squats,RDL,BSS and farmer/suitcase walks. My next trip however I will probably use resistance bands as they are overall probably more versatile on a road trip. I got them at a decent price so they are still excellent value to me as an additional bell at home.

I bought 2 of them to use as a cheap sand-filled kettlebell. Love them so much I bought another 2. I use 2 with 12Kg and 2 with 14kg, I also have a couple of sand filled plastic nags wrapped in tape that I can add or take out as needed.I have had no problems with the clasp, they have been trouble free.I have dropped 1 star to 4 stars only because they are advertised as being able to be used with water, burt they are pretty useless using water. 10kgs is the max weight you can have using water, which I thought would be OK while travelling,. but a full bag leaks when lifting and causes so much mess that I spent more time mopping up in my hotel room than I did working out.So Sand = 5 stars and water = less than 3 stars

really handy at home, as it's soft it doesn't wreck the wooden floor like a solid weight would

Good product but mine didn’t include the double wrap handle

Bought this to get me through 2 weeks hotel quarantine. Great concept but leaks water a lot through the roll/handle when using loaded with water. Would probably work ok with sand but not well at all with water, so no good for my purposes. Still some value to it as a drybag when travelling, but just no good as a water weight which it was advertised as.

A highly useful and transportable fitness item which packs away in a bag .... heck... you could use it as a bag as well ! Don't hesitate. Buy it. (I use a zip tie to support the clip as this packs some substantial weight.)

It's a great idea and but the clasp is too weak ; it comes undone everytime I lift it . The bag is heavy duty but the clasp is crap .I would send them back but it's more hassle than it's worth , so I've ordered some carabineers , which should be an easy fix .It's a shame ; otherwise it would have been a good product .

You can train anywhere, travel, home, gym and the amount of exercises possible is great. Easy to use, strong and reliable. Have been travelling for 2 months using it daily and no problems just great results

La pressa non è molto comoda, si potrebbe aggiungere una copertura in neoprene per esempio in modo di renderla meno aggressiva. Inoltre mi è capitato che la chiusura si è aperta durante gli esercizi. Ci si deve comunque adattare il proprio workout perché non tutti gli esercizi sono praticabili, ad esempio tutti i bottom-up non si possono fare. Comunque sia, ha salvato il mio allenamento durante le tre settimane che ha durato il mio viaggio di lavoro.Non l’ho provata con l’acqua, ma con la sabbia funziona (ti devi solo trovare un parco giochi con una vasca di sabbia) 😉

Dies ist eine Kettlebellvariante die für unterwegs sowie für zu Hause ein tolles Trainingsobjekt darstellt.Dadurch, dass man selber bestimmt wie viel Kg man hineinfüllt, ist diese für Anfänger sowie Fortgeschrittene geeignet. Mit Sand lässt sich diese Drybell bis zu 16 Kg befüllen.

Pas étanche : je n’ai pas pu faire une seule séance...Très déçu !

Nada más probarlas me dí cuenta que eran muy incómodas, el agua se sale, no son herméticas, pero encima el velcro que trae para sujeción es muy incómodo, se pone sobre la misma hevilla de cierre y resulta muy incómodo, además de que se pueden abrir.

I travel a lot and have taken resistance bands and suspension trainers on trips with me in the past. I have found that resistance bands just don't have the same satisfying feel that regular weights do. The suspension trainer was better but you need to hook it to a door and one time it (and my prodigious body weight) knocked the door out of aliment and I almost couldn't get out of my room. So I started looking for portable weight solutions that used water. One product looked good but between it and the extra water insert, it was over $100.Then I stumbled on the drybell. While there are couple of similar products that state you can use sand, only the drybell specifically stated that you could use water. At at only $16 I decided to take the leap. The first thing I noticed was that the other reviewer's reports were true that if you use water it will leak out the top. So I did what the seller advised and used a white kitchen trash bag as a liner and tied it off inside the bag. I have been using the bag everyday for two weeks and it has stayed bone dry in that configuration.At the house I have regular dumbbells, medicine balls and some metal kettle bells, but I have found myself grabbing the drybell as my default exercise device. I like the soft sides and the way it molds to my arm. True it's not a massive amount of weight for two handed exercises, but I just do more reps. I haven't traveled with it yet, but based on my experience at home I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone. I paid full price for the product and was not compensated in any way for my review.
