Показать описание
Alan Calvert, the author of the 2 most important books in Iron Game history (The Truth About Weightlifting - 1911, and Super-Strength - 1924), is often called the “Father of American Weight-Lifting”.

There are very, very few pics of Calvert - and actually just 2 showing Calvert to perform some exercises. In those 2 super rare pics above, Calvert demonstrates a) a kettlebell swing b) a dumbbell swing.

Not many people know that the kettlebell and dumbbell swing are actually quite different exercises.

StrongFirst has taught us how to swing a kettlebell properly.

Now is the time to find out the proper way of swinging the dumbbell.

Why were those oldschool exercises, like the swing and indian clubs, forgotten in the western weightlifting scene, even if they were promoted by legendary strongmen and coaches?
