10/10 Now I know why they call it the Beast!
 
By SSgt Davis / Nellis AFB, NV

I thought I was ready for the Beast before it arrived. Boy was I wrong. I had been training with kettlebells exclusively for about a year before I ordered the Beast. I could some work with the two Bulldogs I'd had for a few months. I could one arm snatch the Bulldog 10 times and thought for sure I was prepared. Well, my first snatch attempt with the Beast ended up leaving a huge crater in my backyard. It took a full month of hard training before I could snatch the Beast two times per arm. It is not a joke! If you need a new challenge and really want to see what you're made of, try to tame the Beast!!

 
10/10 The Fat Tamer
 
By Terry Travinsky / Fayetteville, NC, USA

The Fat Tamer. I just received my beast about a week ago. I have done two work outs using it to do my sumo dead lifts. I'm using my 12 kilo k.b. for upper body and my 24 kilo k. B. for my two hand swings formy cardio. However I must admit I love using the 48 kilo beast the best. My legs are really feeling the burn that it's given me. I love all three of my dragon door kettlebells, but the beast is my pet! I haven't given it a name yet,but I will soon. Oh yes, I'm losing about a half inch of belly fat per week. I'm very happy with my progress. And getting stronger as well. Thank you dragon door! Yours truly Terry Travinsky.

 
10/10 Best Kettlebells! Period!
 
By Zach Even - Esh / NJ, USA

I've been purchasing DD KBs since 2003 I think! They have always been the best Kettlebells. Sure, they cost more than other but you get what you pay for. They are indestructible and will likely last a lifetime!

This is the 4th BEAST I have purchased, all from DD. You can't go wrong with DD. Plain and simple. When I purchase equipment I learned long ago that searching for the cheaper brand is only gonna give me the cheapest quality.

 
10/10 Legs of Steel!
 
By Terry Travinsky / Fayetteville, NC, USA

Hello again DragonDoor users! Yes this is my 3rd review.

I started working out with my DragonDoor four kettlebells last 15 July. I started with a 12 kilo. Then bought a 16-kilo. About a month ago I got the 24-kilo kettlebell. After a few more weeks I finally bought The Beast, the 106-pound kettlebell. All my kettlebells work well; however, I love doing the Sumo deadlifts with The Beast very much.

The reason for this third review is to say that I'm a 63-year-old type 2 diabetic. I just saw my doctor and she said I lost so much body fat and gained a lot of muscle in my arms and legs, I knew this, but it was reconfirmed by my doctor. She also said that my A1C is now only 5.8. It was about 8.3, 6 months ago.

So you diabetics take note!

If you work out with your kettlebells three times a week like I do, you will make a huge turn around in your health for the good! My doctor said my legs are like steel now; hence the title for this review. Of course we all know DragonDoor kettlebells are well made and work very well. But I must say I really love my Beast! And it truly did make my A1C level come down. And also gave me the legs of steel! Thanks again DragonDoor for saving my life!

Yours truly,

Terry C Travinsky, USAF

 
10/10 Fantastic product and service
 
By Carl Gauthier / Montreal, Quebec, Canada

I wouldn't buy Kettlebells from any where else; I use this monster for my KB swings with a band within my escalated density sessions. I've come to associate Kettlebells with happiness given the amount of neuro-chemicals released as a result of handling them.

10/10 great quality
 
By Trent Rogers / Indiana

I found the 106lb kettlebell to be of great quality with a very durable finish. Though one must question how much it really costs to produce these things.

 
10/10 Heavy swings are where it's at.
 
By Ron Richards / Vienna, USA

I recently purchased the Bulldog followed closely by purchasing the Beast. I'm no where near pressing the Beast but for sets of heavy swings both of these heavy kettlebells rock. I've owned the 70lb (32kg) kb for about 6 months and it always felt heavy for swings. After adding some short sets with the Bulldog and Beast the 70lb bell feels downright light. Heavy swings with the Bulldog and Beast have also improved my double cleans and double snatches. Occasionally throw some heavy swings into your workouts and watch your other lifts improve.

 
10/10 It IS BIG !
 
By Jim Fraser / North Brookfield, MA

I have been working out with KBs for about 6 years. I own KBs from 4 kg up top 48 kg. My first impression was the 48 kg KB was BIG. The handle is comfortable and, with proper technique, easily lends itself to cleans, swings, snatches, and jerks. Swings are without a doubt the best exercise with this KB. At this time, I cannot press it overhead. I believe this is more a balance/position issue than lack of pure strength. The 48 kg KB is a great addition to my collection and adds an interesting challenge to my workouts.

 
10/10 Nemesis
 
By Tony M. / Los Angeles, CA

The beast was something the UPS guy wished wasn't in his truck that tuesday morning. Regardless, get-ups and side bends with a bulldog is all I can manage for now. When I got that beast out of the box, all I could do with it is swing it, and swing it, and swing it one more time. If there was another size up offered by dragon door I would get it. Just swinging the beast feels like every inch of my body is burning and shattering into tiny pieces by a raging internal furnace of pain.

 
10/10 The Beast is my new best buddy
 
By R. Friederich / Northern Virginia

I will be the first to admit it. There are not too many things I can do with The Beast. Power cleans, 2-handed swings, bent over rows, floor presses, 1-legged dead lifts. But in the short time I have had The Beast it has improved my strength on The Bulldog (88 pounder). I can almost do a strict military press with my left arm now with the The Bulldog. I can do more reps of cleans, rows, and 2-handed swings.

I am pleased with my decision to get a Beast!

 
10/10 Gym in a Box
 
By Paul / Fairfax, VA

If you're looking to get a lot of attention, try bringing a Beast to your local gym (notice I said TRY... just getting it in and out of your car/truck is a workout!). After a few shaky swings and eye-popping get-ups, look for the semi-circle of gawkers around you, and listen for comments such as... 'I've never seen anyone do that before! How heavy is that?,' 'doesn't that hurt?,' and 'what IS that thing?' Leave it out for 10 minutes and count how many people try (and fail) to pick it up with one hand! Respect it, but don't fear it, and you will enjoy some of the best workouts (and gains) of your life!

 
10/10 forces you to do it right.
 
By Tom Klundby RKC, USMC / Portola, Ca. USA

The Beast is the best kettlebell I have. It forces you to do everything right. From power breathing, rooting, to staying tight. If you don't have all these things down the beast will let you know. A great big 10 out of 10!

 
10/10 The beast
 
By CSarlee / Budapest, HUNGARY

Hmmm. Actually I don't have it but at the kettlebell course there is one. And I could clean and then press it up with my right arm smoothly... So now I am thinking of getting one just for fun... Normally I use two fillable KBs (they are about 26 kg/ 57 lb) and can be filled with iron pellets.

 
10/10 One of the best strenght tools I own
 
By Adam Hull / Cullowhee, NC USA

I purchased the "BEAST" and right away loved it. I do sumo dead lifts, upright rows, 1 arm lat rows, swings, and endurance carries with it. The craftmanship is excellent. Believe me this tool has made me alot stronger. Most people who see it can't even pick it up. I will admit you must be very strong to use this correctly. I guess that is true with anything called the "BEAST". I am very into grip strenght and what i did with mine is wrapped a whole roll of electrical friction tape around the handle (this is a very thick rubber tape you can find at an electrical supply store, this is usually a specialty item). Then I used a half a roll of regular electrical tape and now i have a handle that is about one inch in diameter larger. This is great for your grip. BUY A "BEAST" NOW!!

 
10/10 The Ultimate
 
By JG / Rahway, NJ

My "Beast" arrived and all I can say is it is everything it's touted to be. Swings with it send my heart rate soaring! A steady diet of drills with it will bring about raw strength and conditioning like no other peice of equipment I have ever tried!

10/10 Fat Tamer Part 2!
 
By Terry Travinsky / Fayetteville, USA

This is my second review of the beast, the 106 lb Kettlebell from Dragondoor. I now have four kettlebells from Dragondoor. They all servr me well. But I have to say just looking at the beast sitting on my living room floor next to my other three kettlebells,scares the fat right off me! Yes I have built up at lot of muscle in my legs using it. I do 4 stas of 15 reps with it every other day. Of coarse I use my other kettlebells for my cardio and upper body work. I'm 63 years old now, but have more muscle on my body then I did at the age of 18 when I went into the US AirFporce. People tell me I look a lot younger then I am now! I feel really great! I now just can't wait to do my so dead lifts with the beast! And yes it looks and feels great,as the finish is so well done. My legs now feel like steel now. Thanks to to the Dragondoor team. I know it's not cheap guys! But once you do your sumo dead lifts with it, you will never want any thing else! Thank you Dragondoor! Yours Truly, Terry C Travinsly USAF Ret.

 
10/10 Best 48kg I have handled, top quality Beast!
 
By Chris Nordeen / SO, Cal, USA

I have been training with a lot of different bells lately and all the 48s I have tried are pretty much junk when compared to this sweet bell. Handle is nice and round, good diameter and perfect finish. So day I will double this guy up and do some serious pressing and squatting. Thanks for staying strong to quality dragon door.

 
10/10 Heavy, Very Heavy
 
By Dane Ciolino / New Orleans, LA, USA

Excellent kettlebell. I'm almost 60, so I use only for two-handed swings and slow, grinding deadlifts. Great for those exercises.
