Kettlebell Swing Routine

Kettlebell Swing Routine

I have been using some of the kettlebell training methods from my previous post regarding powerlifting and kettlebell recently.

Some of the exercises which I have never tried, never even thought about have turned out to be total killers.

This is my workout from yesterday:

Single hand swing between legs

2x12 40kg (left, swap, right)
2x10 48kg (left, swap, right)
2x8 60kg (left, swap, right)

Sumo Swing (Wide sumo style deadlift stance with 2 kettlebells)

4x6 40kg (total 80kg)

Windmill

2x5 40kg (left and right)

Double Kettlebell Sumo swing is a marvelous exercise. I can feel this will transfer directly over into any sport require explosive hip power and great core strength/power. I used 2 40kg's kettlebells and found it pretty tough.

As I also compete in highland games this will be awesome building up power for the weight over bar and caber.
