If you've been working on acquiring equipment for your home gym, kettlebells are one of the most dynamic pieces of gym equipment that you can have. Not only are they great for strength training, but they can be added into any HIIT or cardio workout for an extra challenge. Really, they can be used in an infinite amount of ways thanks to their design. (Looking for a killer kettlebell workout? Try this 31-day kettlebell workout from kettlebell expert Marcus Martinez, C.S.C.S. that uses compound exercises to challenge your whole body. Or try the Men's Health 30-Day Kettlebell Challenge.)

Kettlebells can be used for deadlifting, core workouts, snatches, rows; you can take on kettlebell burpees for ultimate torture, use the implements in combination with jump ropes for a killer workout; and of course, kettlebell swings. Use them as a great tool on leg day and to help you improve your balance and coordination.

Kettlebells are exciting and versatile, especially in flows, chains of explosive exercises done in succession,” says trainer Eric Leija, creator of Men’s Health’s Kettlehell workout program. “I can do anything I want to do with kettlebells that I’d do with dumbbells. But kettlebells are way more fun.”

And there are endless types of kettlebells out there to choose from when it comes to design and material options. And whether you prefer adjustable kettlebells or single-weight kettlebells, they're an essential to add to your home gym setup. Here are 18 of the best kettlebells for your home gym.
