The Kettlebell Swing - How To Get It RIGHT!

THE RIGHT WAY TO SWING IT

1. Get set: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointed out, and knees slightly bent; look straight ahead. Hold a 16kg kettlebell (a good starter weight for men) between your legs using a twohanded, overhand grip.

2. Swing it: Keeping the arch in your lower back, bend your hips back until thekettlebell is between and behind your legs; squeeze your glutes to extend your hips and swing the weight up.

3. Bring it down: Let the weight swing back between your legs as you bend your hips and slightly bend your knees; if it hits you in the butt, you’re doing it right. Extend your hips and knees to reverse the momentum as you immediately begin the next rep.
