The Basics Of Kettlebell Swings

Dan is back with more awesome kettlebell content! Today he’s covering the basics of kettlebell swings that most people forget.

Some Tips From The Video:

  • Make sure you keep a neutral spine when picking up the kettlebell
  • One option to start a swing is by bouncing the bell of your thigh and then building momentum
  • The other option is starting the swing while picking up the bell.
  • Always keep the kettlebell high to the hips so your wrists bounce of the hips
  • Ensure the kettlebell doesn’t go too low to avoid causing problems for the back or knees
  • Be wary of hyperextending the hips

To master the swing, try the dead stop swing!
