[@greenbunny13]

You're an amazing teacher, Joe.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

+greenbunny13 thanks!

[@ryanwilliams9984]

I prefer jerks, but like to press as well and the groove you show for the press is much easier on my shoulders than the sort of Arnold press style that I often see taught. Your videos are becoming my go to for form tips and learning new exercises. I'd love to train at your gym. Thanks!

[@EribertoMendez]

Just found your wonderful youtube channel very helpful thanks. Keep up the good work kettlebell newbie here :-)

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

no problem thanks for sharing !

[@brianwilson6686]

Very informative, thank you for posting

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

+Brian Wilson very welcome. Have you seen the recent videos?

[@aliinoa]

Never thought to use the grip of the inner curve of the handle for push presses and jerks, genius, awesome technique!

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

aliinoa its more of a kettlebell sport hold but can always be used to save grip. basically a false grip. feels better on the forearm. i have several other videos on this technique look at my recent uploads.

[@zsmm1972]

Keep up the great work.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

thank you adam

Joe Daniels Swing This Kettlebell and Strength I felt it is my responsibility to make a clean - jerk video myself. Especially for you my friends :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioOzh6l4erimbMk

[@EntrepreneurVisionHQ]

Tried performing with you and it was a lot more focus on the Jerk than I thought. Thanks for the video

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

+Entrepreneur Vision HQ yes the jerk needs the most focus as it is the most complicated . search my playlist of kettlebell complexes for fun workouts

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

+Entrepreneur Vision HQ jerk is the most complicated of them all

[@MR-yp7mu]

Finally good jerk instruction. Thanks!

Joe - As always, great content and instruction! More vlogs like this would be great that provide specific focus. Who would you recommend to get certified with ? Mike

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

+Mike Grant thank you. . I'm setting up a nice place to film at my new gym. Depends on what you're goals are. There are so many differing views out there. I should create my own.....

[@loosetopics]

You should create your own!!

The weirdo Show working on it

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

youre welcome @brian wilson

[@abarragan2973]

I will definitely try this. Right now I'm doing strict for reps. I'll do say 10 with a 53lbs, 12 with a 44lb and 14 with a 35 and just add a rep to each on the following day that exercise fall on. But I do wanna start just using one bell. After this cycle, I'll switch it up.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

+Tbarr73 sofunds like a progressive plan! Kick butt. One bell presses are great!

[@chrisredig1381]

Thanks

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Youre welcome

[@jimasturias3952]

Awesome

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Thank you.

[@eriecanary1916]

what are the benefits of the jerk over the push press? if I'm not doing them for sport, is there any great reason to focus on one over the other? (I can't for the life of me get good form on the jerk, but love doing a clean + push press.)

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Doesnt matter. Jerk you can either do more reps or heavier weight overhead. I do both.

[@aubreygmcghee]

I'm curious if this approach would still be considered anti glycolytic training? My thinking here is to be able to get in a massive amount of volume with the press by doing say three single sets of 5 reps of all three presses in a row with plenty of rest in between sets. You would essentially get in 45 reps on each arm in a short amount of time. This wouldn't be the optimum approach is your main focus is kettlebell training for sport and for maximal athletic development but for every day guys and gals who are just looking for GPP this would be awesome to get high volume in in a short time frame.. I like it! Plus you train different muscles that support the press with each press variation.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Look up my OUTER LIMITS PROTOCOL

[@aubreygmcghee]

@@kettlebellmusclegain I will definitely check it out. I have been swinging a bell casually for a while now but I have been so busy with my business, raising a family and being involved in Church etc. I haven't been consistent for some time with any one protocol. I have also gone back and forth in my mind on what approach I want to use and programming as well as considering barbells vs kettlebells vs body weight etc. I have finally decided that the kettlebell is the absolute best tool for my needs and will give me the bigger bang for my buck in the shortest time requirement. That is what I need. I have started the Easy strength program substituting one amr presses for the TGU. It's just more convenient and less space is needed. I want to progress into double bells where I can really maximize my strength. How long does it generally take to progress into double bells? With string first they are big on laying a foundation with single bells for some time before moving to doubles.

[@joshwalker3139]

Joe, what shoes are those?

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

they are an older version of the Reebok Lifters. flexible enough to push sleds etc

[@Henricus.]

You remind me of the lead singer of the band the foals dude except your jacked 😂 👊🏼

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

And theyre a talented band ! ;)

[@Henricus.]

@@kettlebellmusclegain and British 💪🏼 🇬🇧 😂

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

I love some british bands. Idles, Sleaford Mods, getting into Slaves etc.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

digging Dry Cleaning lately too.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

I buy some records from Rough Trade

[@barasantoso1846]

For average dude, how many kilogram is best? I dont want to go to hard to cause problem like spinal problem or hernia problem. But i dont to go to easy. How many kilo that you use on video?

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Prob 24kg on video but you can never go wrong with 16kg and 20kg for longevity. I use 16 to 24kg in every workout at some point . Then you can go to doubles.

[@WaterandSpirit]

Why do you use competition kettlebell instead of classic or cast iron?

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

I use both but prefer comp style. same as olympic lifters use oly plates vs cast iron. Same size diameter as the weight increases.,This allows for better form as you progress. Plus i actually compete in kettlebsll sport.

[@WaterandSpirit]

@@kettlebellmusclegain thank you for your response. I mainly just train to build my endurance and strength for things like bodyweight and running.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Perfect. Both are great but when using comp kbs the form stays the same as weight increases. Cast iron weight and diameter changes would be like using different running shoes for different inclined hills. ;)

[@papageorgio123123]

So on the top of the jerk you keep your shoulder down instead of extended up(like olympic lifting) ? The trainers at my gym are putting their shoulder to their ear when they jerk the kettlebell. I disagree with the extension, I prefer the way you have done it in this video. The extension on an asymmetrical lift seems like it would be unsafe at heavier loads.

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

hahah yes because the way I do it is CORRECT its very different than OLY lift due to arms near ears unlike oly. and usually crossfitters dont have the ROM for kettlebell sport.

[@papageorgio123123]

So as a general rule with kettlebell overhead movements, always keep the shoulders stacked, correct?

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

Lats engaged to keep shoulder stable strong. whatever keeps your shoulder feeling strongest , most endurance and safe

[@kettlebellmusclegain]

you can elevate the shoulders a bit to keep from impinging but still keep lats engaged to keep shoulder safe.
