Onnit Star Wars Kettlebell

Austin-based fitness juggernaut Onnit doesn't just make kick-ass podcasts and nootropic supps like Alpha Brain (which we've raved about before). They also make all variety of iron clubs, maces, and heavy-ass kettlebells adorned with monsters, animals, and…storm troopers? Yup.



The three newly released Star Wars kettlebells from Onnit are all squarely on the dark side, with a 50-pound Boba Fett, 60-pound storm trooper (maybe the coolest of the three), and the man in black himself, a 70-pound Darth Vader. Swing them. They are your destiny.

NOW Whey Protein Isolate

I love that this product is unsweetened and unflavored, so it's easy on your digestion and you can add the type and amount of sweetener you prefer (if any). I blend it into my go-to protein shake: a banana, plain Greek yogurt, whey, and a handful of spinach. It's also great for protein oatmeal.
