Abstract
An adjustable kettlebell includes a cradle safety mechanism and a kettlebell safety mechanism. The cradle safety mechanism includes a position sensor that detects whether the kettlebell is in the cradled position and prevents a motor from rotating to change the weight of the kettlebell if the kettlebell is in the uncradled position. The kettlebell safety mechanism includes a dial retractable into the handle of the kettlebell. When the dial is retracted into the kettlebell, a selection mechanism cannot be rotated to change a weight of the kettlebell.
