Heavy Kettlebell Swings

Heavy Kettlebell Swings

Heavy kettlebell swings used in a explosive training phase can be used as an alternative way to train power through your hips abs and back or as an extra dimension to your jumping, sprinting or o'lift routine.

Here is a video of me using 2 kettlebells, a 40kg and a 20kg together. The extra thickness of 2 handles together also challenges your grip strength. Although the movement doesn't look too speedy or massively explosive it does a tremendous job of hitting the core and back muscles and training the whole body together as a unit.

I find when I do heavy kettlebell swings there is a direct crossover to traditional weight training as it pulls your whole body together and trains it work as one piece. As you may know trying to swing 60 or 80kg of metal won't happen if you don't allow your muscles to work in harmony.

This is the key to all and any sport, if you don't train your body to work as a unit IT JUST AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!
