This is precisely why I have a 5kilo kettlebell [for which my friends often mock me!]. I like to 'learn' a movement properly with very light weight before the actual 'working' part with the heavier 'actual exercise performance' bells. I stopped bothering with 'ego' in workouts a long time ago! Once I know the movement, what the 'groove' is, where it should be, how it should feel etc., only then will I start with the 12k and then working up and onward to start 'working in'. properly. Funny the amount of people that will still do 'unloaded bar' work to learn a standard lifting movement but sneer stupidly at a lighter kb being used for the EXACT same reason when it comes to swinging!
@errcoche3 жыл бұрын
Just tried it with my 30lber. Too heavy. I don't feel in control and I don't seem to be strong enough in these directions. You need some weight in the hand but not much. Guess I need some lighter bells. 5kg would also be a great warm up weight. Best warm up is the same movements as the workout but with light load.

I agree with you. I will work on this with a 6kg. Would hate to bash you knee……. As in all things -start light and work up. I do Suitcase swings, now using 2 x 10kg, and will enjoy work8ng upwards. I love suitcase swings, one of Mark’s videos.
@TylerInTraining2 жыл бұрын
I just tried this movement with a 10lb weight to get the form down, for the exact reasons you cited. Got it right a couple times at first but then started to rush and tagged my leg just above the knee. Not so bad with that light a weight but that's why you swallow your pride to get it right with less risk.

Mark I would like to say that I have been concerned with my diminished strength and mobility lately, I will be 63 this December and really don't want to become a feeble old man, but I was not sure where to start with improving. A few weeks back I discovered your channel and began to do some of your club and kettle bell exercises. I can really feel the difference the exercises have made and I am confident that I will get much better over time, I don't think I will regain what I had in my youth but I do think I will be able to do many of the things I have slowly found to be increasingly difficult. Hopefully this feedback puts a smile on your face.

Hey Mark, do you think this is a safe option for pwaterstripe? In my opinion it could be, but unless this is one of you’re clients you speak to or train regularly I would not give this advice. The only info on the pain is the the location. You don’t know if it’s a tear, some pelvis alignment issue, if it is from muscle imbalances, etc. Maybe you know this individual but instead of giving them a generic movement I think sending them to a professional on the end of PT, OT, Athletic trainers, etc. This way the get specific help for themselves and you are not liable for any further harm. Mark you maybe right, but just for the safety of yourself if nothing else!
