vid yourself or get an experienced eye to watch if you're extending too far at the top, crunching your low back. No need to rock back any further than vertical. And in the downswing, keep your head in line with your spine, shoulders retracted, and lumbar curve maintained.
Mine tweaks when I don't control the descent and the kb falls to low toward my knees. Learning to control the bell's descent has gotten rid of the problem.
is it just me, or does every kettle bell exercise outside of a swing seem pointless??? If I want to do a clean, I'll just use a barbell. I'll take dumbell snatches over kettlebell snatches. bruising up my forearm with kettlebell moves isn't fun to me.
it's just to chafe things up a bit. I'm a student of exercise science and as we all know and I'm sure you do as well, every exercise makes your body do different things even if it's the same name. With a barbell you use your entire body for the clean manly, but when you use just one hand for the movement other parts of the body have to stabilize your weight just so you don't end up falling to the side or getting of balance. Hope this helps.
I have been doing kettle bells for 10 years and I have found KBs far more effective for overall functional strength building than dumb bells. With all due respect, the reason some of y'all are having a negative attitude towards them is because you are doing them incorrectly (and Crossfit tends to teach bad KB form).
Sounds effects! Sweet!! Martone is the man.
That's really helpful plus I love the sound effects
Great video, I bang my forearm up for 4 months not understanding the hand movement trick you did. The movement is so smooth once you learn it
This guy is great! And entertaining! Got a kick out of those sounds effects.
Outtakes please, Martone is priceless
best videos crossfit posts are with you jeff
@ 00:43, did this guy just use a sound effect during his demonstration??????
Jeff, why does my lower back hurt so much during kettle bell swings? Even Russian kettle bell swings..
weak back, poor form, prior injury??

Makes sure you squeeze your glutes the whole time

Because you are not using your hips on the swing (but your back).
Для кого эта программа? Для пузанов, которые лежат на диване? Фу.....!

Totally agree. Did KB snatches in a workout once and haven't done them since.
trying to "punch through the ceiling" at the top of the snatch dramatically reduces the forearm impact of the bell
if you're getting bruised you are doing it wrong.
