Wrestler's Yoga: The Turkish Get Up

The Turkish get up is movement sequence performed with weight, usually a kettlebell, though it can also be performed with dumbbells, barbells, sandbags or even a person. It's popular with grapplers and kettlebell enthusiasts for its full body effects on joint health, injury prevention, integrated strength, mobility, stability and balance.

I think you should make a small line of T shirt merch. The visualization and sketches you have are so powerful and amazing, and I think a lot of people like myself would be proud to wear a nicely simple and well thought out T shirt displaying their favourite exercises or movements!

I implemented TGUs in my training routine after your kettle bell swing video, which got me into kettle bell training. Thanks for that! As usual - your visualisation is second to none.

Like the reference to Dan John at the end. Amazing coach and probably one of the most under-appreciated fitness pro's on YouTube.

I really like "Finally, a real challenge!"

I've been saying that when I used to say " I don't wanna"

It's helped a lot. Thank you.

I’ve been following your content a while now. You’re definitely on the road to a milli with these high quality breakdowns. Keep up the good work 💪🏿💯💪🏿💯💪🏿💯

Awesome Explanation, Awesome Exercise.
The most important thing is to have a stable underground and good traction (with shoes, feet, gloves, barehand or whatever) a hard ground is often very uncomfortable while a mat is very slippery. Doing it on a wooden floor with bare hands and feet is optimal until you get sweaty, then it gets dangerous. Switch positions, drie up the floor or put on shoes after that.

What a great channel!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!👏👏👏👏

The tgu is a great exercise because you work on your full body. Swing and tgu are minimalist training but effective for Pavel Tsatsouline😊

[jonreyrao]

This is great work! Breaking it down into steps is really helpful for me. Thank you!

[deepbluesea]

You're so informative in each of your videos. Your drawings are incredible and your ability to describe what is drawn is even more so incredible, thank you for each video you've made and the effort put it in.

One of my favorite youtubers out there and one of the best fitness youtuber's out there.

Love your videos. 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I’ve just started doing these, only using 15 lbs. I have shoulder issues and that’s where I get fatigued doing these. I love them, tho. I’m never doing “cardio” again, unless I’m doing kettlebells or trail running someplace beautiful. The core work, full body strength and balance benefits feel fantastic. I’m finally healing a lot of imbalances.
