Kettlebells and Phlatates

[CrossFit Young Athletes]

I was looking for a KB online and found a few I liked, but all had the warning that these products contain phlalates and can cause birth defects and reproductive harm. I'm concerned in general about chemical exposure, but normally I wouldn't be terribly concerned about something like this except that the way one uses KBs requires that you sweat all over it and have close contact with skin.

Any thoughts? Does anyone know anything about KBs and phlalate exposure? Would just wearing lifting gloves protect me, or are there airborne chemicals to be worried about as well?
