Most home gyms<br />
are on the smaller<br />
side, or consist of a<br />

minimizes equipment<br />
for weighted workouts.<br />
The advanced<br />
technology allows<br />
users to add or drop<br />
weight in seconds,<br />
saving both time and<br />
space. The six weight<br />
variations range from<br />
12 to 42 pounds. The<br />
compact product,<br />
which has a comfortable<br />
wide-grip handle,<br />
allows connection<br />
for up to nine users<br />
and holds a single<br />
charge for 14 hours.<br />
The KettlebellConnect<br />
can be synced to<br />
the Jaxjox app via<br />
Bluetooth for free<br />
guided workout video<br />
routines, and to track<br />
reps, sets, weight<br />
and rest time. It can<br />
also be synced to the<br />
