as a gymbro and artist, this channel is scratching an itch I didn't know I had
exactly in the same situation, this channel has my heart
Same here, he illustrates it so beautifully
same, those damn illustrations are just a pleasure to watch
I am from India and working out for over a decade, bodyweight, some boxing, 10 kg dumbbells and 30 kg barbell. Never lifted heavy. Fairly solid build around 75 kg. What would be the best starting weight for me, 12 or 16. I have read many comments that 16 is too heavy for a beginner even though most experts suggest it.

WARNING WARNING do not hit nuts with Kettle Bell 🛎️ 😢
That’s part of the challenge
I used to think the same thing before starting kettlebell but after doing 2 sessions of kettlebell swings now I realised that you can't hit your nuts area with that
Best practice
If you did, you would be a good opera singer at least.
Good thing I'm not hung like a bear
Comparing the kettlebell swing to sprinting makes perfect sense. Because the first time I tried the exercise. I did itfor thirty seconds and had to lie down for ten minutes.
Lol, your not the only one.
I just bought a kettlebell last week, tried it for the first time two days ago. I'm 66 years old, and I sit all day at my job, so I'm completely out of shape. Even so, I was shocked that my first 20 swing reps winded me. After my second try today,I was less winded, and my lower back is already feeling more limber. I'm going to work up to doing 100 reps a day, plus of course other kettlebell exercises.
@tombiggs4687 The Martial Arts Kettlebell Solution is a good book of exercises from an experienced instructor
@@tombiggs4687 what weight are you using?
@@tombiggs4687 100 in sets of 5 and 20 reps as you build stamina you can do more, and add more weight once you get stronger.
3:42 kettlebell exercises fixed my lower back pain! I had to take it slow at first,but my lower back went from feeling like plastic to feeling like steel 💪
🔥
What weight did you start with, as I have the same issue, especially at 55, one has to take care of the body. Thanks for pointing it out
@@moosa9850 I’m glad I can help! When I first started I used what was at my gym, so I think I started with a 20lb to get a feel for it, (never used a kettlebell before) and then used the 30lb for a week or two and then I left my gym because I wanted to workout at home.
I bought a 40lb off Amazon, which is heavier than a 35lb they recommend men start out with, but I wanted to go slightly heavier to save money in case I needed to move up in weight.
So when I moved to the 40lb I took it easy and was super careful about my form. I’ve done traditional weight exercises for years so I know how to keep my back straight when moving weight.
I think the most important thing is to listen to your body. At first I was just doing 20 swings with the 40lb and calling it a day. One day I went too hard and had to take a week off cuz my back felt irritated. Also there were days after my workout where my back felt irritated when I’d bend down to pick something up, and it definitely felt like I was playing with fire but I kept proceeding with caution. I think it was just that my lower back muscles were not used to being worked at all because traditional exercises like bench press, pull-up etc don’t work the lower back.
I hope that helps!
@@moosa9850 I'd advice you to start with an 8 kg (appr. 18 pounds) kettlebell. This is a light weight which will allow you to learn the exercise technique correctly. After some time, you will be able to increase the weight of the kettlebell.
Exact same! I had pain for almost 5 years and now it's completely gone
The guide between 4:30 and 5:50 is the best I have ever seen for an exercise. Easy to understand, easy to visualise, how it should feel, step by step and everything you need to know. You have set a new peak for exercise guide videos. This is absolutely brilliant.
Good looks I was looking for a time stamp
Thank you for the time stamp bro
Kettlebell exercises are no joke and so are its results. I have been consistently training with my 16kg kettebell for 2 years and I can now crank out 50 reps of snatches, cleans and rack squats in 10 minutes. That is a total of 150 reps in a short amount of time.
Side effects are as follows, increased cardio, super grip(I can hang on a bar with 1 hand for 20 seconds) and good quality sleep and relatively good strength. Lost fat, gained muscle.
The best thing I noticed is that my gait has become more coordinated. If I do slip on a step, I can easily recover and straighten myself up. Years ago, I would have fallen on my ass and broke a few bones. So yes, it also prevents injury… and need I say I am now 40 years old. Cons of kettlebells are calluses on my palm but I love them. I hope everyone picks up a kettlebell and put on the hardwork.
Glad to hear how well they've done for you, my experience was much the same. Made me feel strong in ways that transferred to my daily life so much better than barbell lifting. I'm always shocked when swings get hate from people, I just assume they haven't seriously tried it most the time. Thanks for posting your experience!
@@moversodyssey it’s hard to sell kettebells to people as the shape is just too alien. It didn’t help that the early manuals were dauntingly scientific, especially for non-native english speakers like me. I am one of those who said f*ck it and brought one home. I soldiered through the little bumps and bruises and now I am here preaching like John the Baptist about this new awesome fitness tool.
Everything about it translates to athletic and real life movements. It’s great for recovery. It is tiny and compact. It’s easy on the joints. You can buy one and it will outlive you. It’s one of the best fitness investments you will make.
Are you sure about this benefiting hanging from the bar time? I never thought about doing something else to increase grip strength. I don't do gym, but I do have ancient 32kg kettlebell at home. The handle is kinda narrow for 2 hands and rounded. My goal was always lifting it overhead with 1 hand and I finally did, but that it is way more dangerous, so I don't even try anymore. Don't want to kill my shoulders for nothing.
@@V-ns7iy doing kettlebells worked for me to increase my grip strength and endurance. You may have to look somewhere else if it does not work for you.
I advise that you find a smaller kettlebell at around 16kg and with a wider grip. The competition type kettlebells should be enough to fit most hand sizes.
@@V-ns7iy Kettlebell swings are great for increasing grip strength, especially if you do one handed swings. Kettlebell cleans and snatches are the same way, always leave my hands and forearms burning. 32kg is pretty heavy though, I would definitely go with a lighter weight if your going to do one handed swings. Though I've seen some people do two handed swings with that weight, usually they are larger people though. Anyway, best of luck
Kettlebell swings fixed years of chronic back issues for me. My back used to go out once or twice a year. Since the swings I haven’t had a major back issue since September of 2017.
This is something I see all the time. A lot of people don't realize just how rehabilitative this exercise can be.
@@moversodyssey they really saved me. I tell everyone I know with back issues.
I've been doing KB Swings for years. It is in fact the King of Exercises. The cross over to other movement patterns alone makes it King.
I couldn't agree more. I feel most of it's haters have never given the exercise a genuine try. It can be hard to understand the swing when you come from traditional lifting where it's all about adding more weight I suppose.
@@moversodyssey Agreed. The KB Swing doesn't have the allure of "bigger numbers." But man, is produces life altering benefits.
Love it. Any other exercise you recommend to complement swings? Pull-up, push-ups, KB press?
@@phaphiqIf you're looking to get muscular - Swings hits most of the backside from lower back down, so pull ups will take care of upper back. Alternate pull ups and chin ups to hit different muscles and chin ups will hit your biceps too. Add push ups for triceps and chest, pike push ups for shoulders. Bodyweight squats for quads. Only other thing you need would be some cardio, and really, the KB swings will probably take care of that.
For overall health - Just stick with the swings, add some resistance bands and extra cardio. Walk up and down stairs, carry your kettlebell in one hand and switch hands every few flights of steps. Most people don't get enough cardio. Go swimming, bicycling, brisk walk. Depends on your fitness level. Get one of those cheap bluetooth HR chest monitors and learn what your heartrate should be and keep it there for at least 20minutes. I just get on the assault bike and watch TV. Buy some resistance bands, Bodylastics are good, you can get a lot done with them (you'll get toned and athletic looking but probably not swole).
This is just general advice, obviously I don't know your current condition or what your goals are. Start slow, you might be able to do 100 bodyweight squats on your first day but your legs will be hurting for the next week. Better to do less and see how you feel the next day, and if OK, do more next time.
The most shredded I ever got was doing the 10,000 kettle bell swing program. God bless. Never doing that again
I've been doing kettlebells for years now. Great sum up of the swing and fantastic video overall! Your animations are crazy good!
I love how this video is made. Great graphics combined with clear and direct explanations. Excelent work!
This video is perfect timing for me as I was just looking for a kettlebell routine. I came back to say the starting guide offered here is really great and concise. Excellent starting source.
I used to neglect this exercise completely because I saw crossfitters doing it, so had little to no trust. However, this was a nice explanation, I'll be giving these a try sometime. Thanks for the information!
Crossfitters do the American style swing, where the weight is lifted over the head. Some people like this, but personally I think its terrible for the shoulders and takes the focus away from the most beneficial part of the lift. Hard style swings are the best option for most people in my opinion.
@@moversodyssey i think it has different benefit if you do it like a throw, what i mean like strong man thrown overhead.
Crossfit some time bad some time good, learnt what good from them better than all hate man !
@@everythingcanwork5215the problem is it's not a throw. The Crossfit swing has them move it overhead, arrest the motion, then push it back down. It's hell on the shoulders, and the extra force on the backswing probably doesn't help with back health either. I think they should switch to snatches.
Dude, crossfit implements some great exercises, some would say some of the greatest. I mean, Olympic lifts? Extremely athletic and great for building muscle.
Crossfit gets a lot of hate for crappy programming (which results in high injury rates) and butterfly/kip pull-ups.
I'm no lover of crossfit, but I do recognize that some of the exercises they do are some of the best and most functional/athletic. I can't talk about their kettlebell swing style because I've never seen it, but if you learn how to do a lot of their exercise selection properly, you'll definitely see some impressive strength and aesthetics (as long as you program properly, of course).
This channel literally changed my life. I saw one video. Just a video and it changed my physique like crazy after 2 months. That video was the sprint. And now I’m going to do the kettlebell swing.
Great to hear! This is a good one, it will make your shoulders feel great.
Omg I miss doing sprints and need to get back into it! Training for intensity in large muscle groups like quads and glutes releases more testosterone, and sprinting really helps get your posture into a great place! A part of that is using the max capacity of your lungs over and over when breathing which requires you to bring your shoulders back, brings up the front muscle wall of your body while engaging the glutes and hams to all fix anterior hip tilt and just so much it's crazy. Makes you feel like the animal humans are haha.
And apologies if stuff is redundant after watching the sprint vid. I don't think I've seen it yet.
I swear this channel is pure quality in terms of content, presentation and visuals keep it coming !
I remember my dad telling me that in the early 70's, before everyone was into weight lifting, the hardest game every year in high school football was against the county teams. All those kids worked on their family's farms whenever they weren't in school, so they were strong as hell.
That country strength is usually a lot of strength-endurance mixed with a healthy amount of explosiveness. Explosiveness gets respect but most people still have no idea how much strength-endurance actually translates into real world strength and athletic ability.
@@moversodysseyHey man i am a great admirer of the chanel , the graffics + content are just gold. I have trained around a year strenght and little bit of explosiveness. Now i want to periodize and try strenght + plyometrics/balistic excersise or strenght + endurance. What are your thoughts of the endurance part of the equasion?
@@user-zz7tk4yr4d Glad your enjoying the channel! The great thing about kettlebells in particular (although there are other ways to do this as well), is that you can train strength, strength-endurance, power and power-endurance all at the same time. At least with the 3 primary ballistic kettlebell movements, the swing, the clean and the snatch.
Both plyometrics and ballistics can be done at high intensity levels which is great for developing max starting strength (plyometrics) and max follow through strength (ballistics), but this does take a high neurological and muscular toll on the body. Because of this the higher intensity plyos and ballistic movements are often focused into different training periods. For instance you might do 6-8 weeks of high box jumps, then for the next 6-8 weeks lower the intensity and amount of box jumps into a maintenance routine and add in high intensity ballistics.
Building power-endurance and strength-endurance first is often a great foundation. It will condition your body to be more resilient to higher intensity power training later on. Plus, in my experience, 60-70% of the power gains can be made from power-endurance training in the first place. The other 30-40% can be achieved with just a few high intensity additions later on. It seems to be a safer route to power development and also tends to make you more injury resistant, as the endurance you develop conditions the body to keep good form well into fatigue.
Sorry that was so long, hope it helps.
I had a simple introduction to the swing. I saw a video on MindSmash about 7 years ago about how awesome this workout was and bought my first kettlebell a week later. I lost 40lbs doing 100 swings a day for 4 months with little change to my diet. This exercise works your muscle without tearing you down like the squat or other resistance exercises. Being consistent with the swing will yield unbelievable results. Also, listen to Pavel Tsasoline, the man who brought the kettlebell to the West. His insight and workouts are extraordinary.
The quality production on these videos is insane, they’re incredibly well made!
I did it today for the first time. I'm in so much pain....and loving every moment of it
Man I’m not. Doing exercises that cause me to be down from the count for a few days is unbearable. I want to DO THINGS DAMN IT! Including other training. At least when my body is done with initial adaptation it won’t be as bad.
@@titansmashproductions5001thats just being unreasonable and not knowing that what you're doing is bad, this is literally the BIGGEST mistake beginners do, they go all out. People have different levels of physical endurance, one is more fat while sitting 10h/day on keyboard another is fat but is maybe some factory worker who lifts 10-20kg boxes for +8h/day, completely different setups yet both fat and want to get in shape.
Do 50% less than what the training program says, feel the burn, feel the stretch, but dont kill yourself over it. You want to build consistency not the maximum performance till falling over exhaustion every single time you train, that shit you can do few months in when you're not dreading the exercises and body is used to more excessive movement.
I introduced multiple of my friends to gym life when they were fat, none of them quit because i learned myself the hard way of going with some internet program thats "popular and good" but not adjusted for that person, go slow and get used to it, start training the consistency, learn the discipline and then go hard when your foundations are built to last a lifetime, instead of 3 month "diet and exercise" plan to fall back to unhealthy life because you got burnt out from exhaustion.
@@titansmashproductions5001how you doing? Don’t overdo it at first. Start with 20 swings and work up to 100 if needs be
I just started and I’m already pushing above 100 and I’m still not fatigued just built up sweat
You are not supposed to feel pain though. Fatigue yes, but not pain.
As a wrestler, not only is the KB swing versatile, but (as you mentioned) the endurance building and explosive strength the exercise gives you is insane. Especially for something that you can up the weight so effectively with. Like said, lighter weight that a PR deadlift, more gains. Love the art style btw, this channel is really helpful.
Glad your enjoying the content, and thanks for your comment!
This is awesome! I've started doing these and have immediately seen a improvement in my hip mobility. I do these weekly as part of a full body mobility routine as well as warm ups for my Karate training. I was a bit nervous about trying these, but holy cow do they work really well. Kettlebells are game changer for my training!
I also want to add that your illustrations are fantastic! I have a connective tissue disorder and don't really have a map of my body. So I've been working on building one as part of my training and these illustrations help so much. When I'm trying a new exercise or movement pattern or kata, and having trouble with it, I can visualize where the muscle is and how it should to move to help with these illustrations. So thank you!
I'm glad these videos are helping out! Sounds like your doing things right if you have a connective tissue disorder. The brain actually makes a map of all the motor neurons in the body, used to be called the homunculus, though I think it may have been renamed some years back. But you build this body map through conscious movement and it helps create graceful, safe and informed movement patterns. Plus I've noticed it makes people feel more alive in general, movement is life and being more connected with it is probably never a bad thing. Anyway, good luck man, hope all goes well for you.
@@moversodyssey definitely agree! Taking Karate and learning how to move and strengthen the body for that has definitely help and reduced a lot of the injuries I was prone to all my life! Kettlebells make a lot of the shoulder exercises easier for me as well. And your kicking post was incredibly beneficial and I'll be adding those to my training regiment as well! Keep doing what you're doing! And thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Great job on the informative and engaging content, bud. I'm a fit (still competing amateur muay thai) 42 yo who has chronic anterior tilt/postural issues due to my sedantary office career. This coming year i'm conciously going to tackle this issues, the kb hard swing will definitely be in the mix because (as you so clearly pointed out) it targets the entire posterior chain in one kick ass exercise.
you poped up on my front page and i fell in love with you videos gonna watch all you videos keep up the great work
This was a well done piece! Thank you for making this! Bravo ❤
I've been watching so many fitness youtubers recently, and this is one of the most engaging, creative, and well put videos that I've seen for ages. Great job. I'm also motivated to get a kettlebell now haha.
Get one, or two with different weights. They take up practically no space, you can carry them in your car, if you wish, and you never have to go to the gym again.
If you get two, you can do pushups on the handles. This keeps your wrist straight so it doesn't get sore. Keeping them upright adds another dimension to the exercise. Start on your knees and, later, move to your toes.
@@olwill1 thanks. I've been doing fitness for a while now.
For the last 4 yrs I've been doing 3k miles on my bike during the summer and then weights/ellypitical at the gym during the winter. But I just recently changed to high intensity bursts. I now do 3 all out 2 min bursts on the rowing machine. Then 3 all out 2 min bursts on the stair stepper, then 3 all out 2 min bursts on the ellyptical then 3 2min bursts on the dreadmill. Tomorrow I'm going to add the KB. I'll be 75 in a few months.
Seems like your staying young, I've got a similar goal so I love hearing the training experiences of anyone older than me. I see this so often now, you can find a 65 year old in a walker and a 75 year old still doing high intensity cardio and pull ups. Hope the kettlebell treats you right, let me know how it goes.
@@moversodyssey Did them as part of my warm up today and again at the end of my workout. Who know I'd be winded at doing just 30 swings? I did 3 sets of 30 before and after. High intensity and now KB have helped even to where I spend a 1/2hr less in the gym everyday.
@@moversodyssey It's been over a month since being introduced to kettlebells. I now have my own for use at home. I have told so many people at the gym to give them a try. I have to admit, they are not the most fun exercise in the world but I have definitely seen my strength increase significantly. Wished I had been introduced to them in high school!
@@leefury7 Glad to hear it's going well! If your getting good results but not enjoying the swings, you could progress to cleans, snatches or clean and jerks. They use the swing as a base and build off of it into more complex movement patterns. Might be more fun. I personally really enjoy the kettlebell snatch.
I used to be able to do high reb 45lb kettlebell swings but kept getting told that it's not real cardio. Eventually I stopped and probably can't crank out more than 25-30 at a time. Gosh I'm so glad I found this video. I hope the muscle memory kicks back in!
Great video. From the illustrations to the narration to the information. 💯
I absolutely love and appreciate the illustrations! I’ve been practicing BJJ x 25 years and I recommend KB swings for mat cardio above any other method (other than rolling).
Thanks for sharing!
What's rolling if you don't mind me asking ?
@@Ok-pt9ocSparring in bjj :)
What about burpees or wind sprints?
@@NoahCarver-lt6qdeverything is better than none, at this point just pick what you enjoy more. Some things are just more beneficial in one exercise because they're done in a way to activate multiple parts of the body, you can also just add more exercises to do the same, but again the same thing. KB swings are just supreme version of a lot of stuff.
Thanks a lot for another detailed video. I feel like i understand the movement much more when i hear and see you explain it! Really helps so thanks again
Glad it was helpful!
Great visuals and clear commentary as usual! Thank you, brother! Swings are a staple in my repertoire 🦾
I love kettlebell swings! Now I love them even more for their thoroughness and stamina for the body! Thanks very much for sharing!
Best intro to kettlebell I've ever seen...chapeau
Nice Video! Properly Performed Kettlebell Swings are Awesome. I use them to help build my Deadlifts.
Solid video! Very detailed.. Kettlebell swings are definitely a wow! Workout.. seeing results where you didn’t expect.
This was incredibly good. One of the best exercise videos I've ever seen. Thank you for making this. Also: this was the exact topic I was wondering for the past weeks, as well as your next vid on Indian Clubs, so I'm grateful and pleasantly surprised at this blessing :-)
Awesome video as always, I will implement this exercise starting from tomorrow's workout
Hey glad you are back man.❤️
I started doing this on my off days and it made my body more ripped and athletic. I do full body 3 days.
Loose rope arms imagery is excellent. Your vids are great man
I wish there was a video like this on more topics. This video is awesome.
Excellent video. Thank you very much!! Can’t wait to watch more of your content!
Extremely well done & explained
Love the animations here. And the explanations are even better. Well done.
Thank you, I'm glad your enjoying the content.
This really got me inspired to set up kettlebell routines. Will be my main focus during xmas holidays to see if something happens. :)
Brilliant- nice drawing art and fitness explanations. That´s so wonderful to look at. Thank you.
I love your videos. The animation is incredible and the information so useful.
Could you do one on medicine ball benefits?
This is effing fantastic!!! Excellent video.
Binge watching all your videos these are so good!!!
thank you for this great info and graphics, will be adding it to my cardio daily sessions from now on. Subscribed
Finally, this explains the 'What the hell?' effect, and good reasons to do swings. Rather than just saying swings are good. Great video.
This is a 10/10 video. I first started kettlebells to get fit back in my earlier 20's, i turn 38 this year.
I loved them, I ended up using them every day for 2 years or so & it got me wanting to get stronger & from there I got into olympic weightlifting & did that for 8 years
I still love kettlebells even though I don't use them, I randomly thought the other day to start again & then randomly I've seen this vid today without even looking up kettlebells. It's a sign!
I used to put a movie on & just do a whole workout for the movie, I was obsessed with them. It got to the point where I would have a 3 hour break and then a second workout later in the day cause I loved them so much.
For anyone thats new to kettlebells or deciding, you gotta do it because you won't regret it & this video is great & I'm confident anything else on the channel would be the same if its on par with this vid & the information it's given.
Next step to master after swings is the clean, it can be tricky at first but once you have that mastered you can do so much with the kettlebell!
I was doing 5x20 or 5x30 swings usually, I started with a 16kg at first but moved to a 24kg in what felt like a small amount of time. The 16kg still never lost its use at all but the 24kg quickly became superior & tbh I think if I stuck to nothing but the 24kg my whole life & no other forms of exercise, I'd be strong AF and ultra fit still
The Bioneer led me to your channel. So glad he did! Love the anatomy pics. Will be referring your vids to my clients for sure!
This the best video on kettlebell swing introduction, thank you, great work !
A friend of my got me into kettlebell workouts and is the best fitness road taken so far, however there is a lot more to it than it looks so thank you very much for the in depth explanation!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the content, and good luck with your kettlebell journey!
Thank you for this video. I’m hooked on KB swings and can attest to the WTH effect being real. I wish I knew about kb swings 20 years ago. I literally do them every day.
I agree, I wish I had run into them years before I did. Everyone I know who gives kettlebells a try and actually puts real effort into it, seems to see incredible results.
I've never used them but after this video I will ❤ Thank you G
Loved the animation. Beautifully done.
i love this so much! but just ensure that people use the legs, not the torso or upper body at all when performing the kettlebell swing, thank you for your work!
This is going to be implemented into my mobility training!
Excellent tutorial, sir! Thank you. 🔥💪🏾
My pleasure!
Okay, I'm convinced to try this now. Thanks!
Glad to help,!
Very nice video and aesthetics, fingers crossed for more kettlebell content 👍
Thank you, the best kettlebell explanation I've seen
The predator in pounce mode really had me thinking, in volleyball as I’m watching the ball go to the setter I start slow and hunched forward like a tiger about to explode and pounce on my prey. It makes so much sense!
Love the rope illustration. That’s a great way to describe it.
I thought that was pretty cool as well.
Dude you explained how to do this exercise better than any other person on this platform
Excellent information - and beautifully illustrated and well done video!
Great two things I love combined, your drawings and swings.
Lol, I dig it.
Yes! The hip thrust powers the swing - the arms don’t swing the KB. 🎯💯🔥🔥.
I've never done kettlebell swings before, but got interested due to the training montage in Never Back Down, so I stumpled on this video and channel. I have to say that the way you edit your videos with these animations is incredible. Very well done and I will give you a follow for sure.
I love your art style so much!
I always enjoy your visuals. Thanks.
Always a like and a comment for KB swings,esp a well done video like this one !
Glad you enjoyed it, and thank you for liking!
This is the king of all exercises. Please make another video on kettlebell swings they deserve it!
I bought a set of kettlebells and have been looking for workout videos. This video is the best I've seen. Its the illustrations and animation for me. Well done and very informative video!
Glad you enjoyed it, and good luck with your kettlebell program!
Love all these videos!! Keep it up!
I am a newbie at the gym and I started working with kettlebells is because they are always lying around people in my gym barely if ever use it... Dumbell and barbell always taken so I started using them and immediately fell in love.... It is so adaptive to your mobility and abilities its unreal I hate barbells because it makes me so uncomfortable not because of the weight but the posture.... And I have started doing kettlebell swings and immediately noticed how it works multiple muscles ... I have incorporated a lot of kettlebell workouts and its improving everything else I do...
Glad to hear your enjoying it! If you like the swings you should give the kettlebell snatch a try, it takes a bit to get used to but it feels great once you get the hang of it. Best of luck with your kettlebell journey!
Best channel ive ever seen
Started getting into kettlebells a bit more last year, and got a nice Rogue one for Christmas. Just got the free ebook and am excited to do more! Thanks for offering that!
No problem, I'm glad your getting good use out of it! Best of luck with your kettlebell program
Excellent video and billiant illustrations ! I will definitely add this to my training, with high rep jump squats with boxing resistance bands, for legs, power and cardio.
Nice. Very knowledgeable video.
I doing this exercise like for a year 💪 it's in Fitify program with kettlebell. I also really nice sprinter and I almost not havin backpain even with sitting on the desk job 🎉
I like the drawings! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this vid on basic kettle bell swing. I just bought a 25 pound kettle bell and anxious to get started Thank you again. Peace
the art in this is really, really good!
Wow I have to give a massive thumbs up to the overall detail and clear explanation of this movement, very helpful and easy to understand, great video.
Glad it was helpful, thanks for the comment!
Thank you! 💫
Great presentation.
I'm 73 this is the best single thing I do.
You just earned a new subscription! Great video.
I bought my first 16kg kettlebell a few months ago, and I can corroborate the 'what the heck' effect on physicality.
I still use my 16kg more than any other kettlebell I have and even after years of training it still yields results. Kettlebells honestly don't make sense. Lol
I've been training and instructing with kettlebells over 20 years. This is the best detailed video I've seen.
The posterior chain is often neglected because they aren't the typical "mirror muscles".
Well done, thank you!
Because of an injury I had to stop pull ups and therefore I’ve trained with kettlebells, I love it ! Can’t wait to go back to pull ups though 😊😂excellent infos in the video ! Thank you 🎉
What an amazing vid!!!! Thanks man 💯💯💯
Unexpected benefits yes, in yoga in my case. I can reach my heels in camel pose now, easily, and I’ve struggled with that for years! Legs also stronger, can hold warrior two and high lunge with ease now. This is just like two weeks in of mostly 35 lb and 45 lb kb’s.
You should do sled pushing and pulling next
Kettlebells are a very powerful tool, once I started using them my anaerobic conditioning skyrocketed. At this point I can work almost continuously through any strength workout.
very good video bro, I have been doing kettebell swing or pesa rusa (spanish) for the last 10 months. It have been a game changer
Awesome video as always!
I was just wondering how would you program a swings workout as a second cardio workout during the week? the first one being a sprints workout (I figure they would benefit each other pretty nicely).
It's actually a great idea because they are both high intensity cardio and great for muscle building as well, but swings are in a square stance and sprinting utilizes a split stance. That way you get work in both anatomical positions. I would just split the week in half and do one on each side of the week so that you get max recovery. So like a monday/thursday or maybe wednesday/saturday. I would do the emom workout in the video for the swings, it's easy to progress and it will take care of all your glute strengthening as well.
I start today! I'll update this comment after 3 weeks of practice...
I’ll start today too! Hope you keep at it 👍
My sprint is more explosive after KB swings and i didn't even train very often🤯
Been two weeks, how's it going?
About 1.5 years ago i started using Kb swings as extra training for my mtb Hobby with at first 5 kg now with 10 kg at least once a week 100 swings in a row. This proved to be an enabler for me. Animal flow is now in reach strength wise. Really seldom back pain and a more upright posture. So true
Your vidéo is amazingly well done!
