SAVE $17.94: Typically $179, the Bowflex SelectTech 840 adjustable kettlebell is on sale on Amazon for just $161.06 as of April 29 — that’s a 10% savings.
If you struggled to find a kettlebell around his time last year, you weren’t alone: The early-pandemic rush to buy home gym equipment depleted an already-short supply of the cast iron free weights in what GQ deemed “the Great Kettlebell Shortage of 2020.”
Production has mostly caught up with demand at this point, judging by all of the kettlebells that were in stock at Walmart, Amazon, and Dick’s Sporting Goods at the time of writing. But we doubt one particular model — the Bowflex SelectTech 840 — will stick around for long: It’s currently on sale on Amazon for just $161.06, which is a solid 10% off its usual retail price of $179.

Ideal for more advanced weight-lifting and strength-training aficionados, kettlebells like the SelectTech 840 are a great way to build full-body strength and power, one trainer told Men’s Health. (As opposed to dumbbells, which are better for isolation exercises that target certain muscles.) This particular model is perfect for anyone who’s new to the whole kettlebell thing, since you can adjust its resistance as you get stronger — it goes all the way from eight to 40 pounds with the turn of a dial.
If you need a little extra guidance along your kettlebell journey, Bowflex encourages you to visit Bowflex.com/SelectTech for 24 trainer-taught exercises that cover foundational kettlebell techniques and best practices for all skill levels. Best of all, they’re totally free to watch — no app or subscription required.
