If you’re looking for a stable weight and reliable bell to swing, the Reax Fluikettle fluid-filled kettlebell won’t be for you. This innovative take on the kettlebell is deliberately designed to make the load – and your exercises – more unpredictable. So your workouts are more challenging for mind and muscles.
Reax Fluikettle features
This is the only kettlebell with a mix of fluid and steel balls inside that move with you during every drill. The constantly shifting weight of the water and those balls creates an unpredictable load that keeps you on your toes, and tests your strength, balance and movement in ways other predictable kettlebells can’t.
It’s an easy way to enhance any strength workout and it certainly makes things more interesting. It’s particularly good if you want to incorporate throws and catches into your regime.
These are the best dumbbell sets for home workouts
The Reax Fluikettle range features nine weights from 2kg to 20kg in 2kg increments (though there’s no 18kg). They also have a soft, flexible outer that soaks up shocks and protects floors and limbs from any impact. The slightly squishy sensation also means they rest comfortable against your arms during drills.

Unlike regular kettlebells the Fluikettle can also be thrown, lifted and slammed to the ground – from as high as 10m – and it’s much more suitable for outdoor training. The slightly angular grip isn’t the comfiest and takes a bit of getting used to.
These are the best dumbbell exercises
They’re also slightly bulkier than standard bells so you’ll need to take storage space into consideration. Fortunately stubbing your toe on one of these is a much less painful experience than bashing it into a brutal cast-iron bell.
