good job!

Молодец , гиря 32 килограмм на соревнованиях один подъем за два считается , так что результат неплохой , молодежь не все поднимут!)

[@truthbetold9915]

Dude’s a beast- relatively speaking - very impressive

[@kettlebellken]

Thanks for watching... here's a better clip from 2020 age 57 with 32kg Snatches (54 Unbroken) kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2mtl5VoZ5ycqK8feature=shared

[@sterlingmoore6032]

Good "wiry" strength. Great tendons. Good job!

[@felixon8975]

You are stong man - thats plus, your technique sucks - thats minus :) Anyways, great stuff for 58 dude 👍

[@AloneAgainstAll8855]

I don’t know what’s more impressive, him throwing that much weight around like it’s nothing or the $400,000 worth of kettlebells in the background!! 😂😂

[@kettlebellken]

Incremental progress 1 day at a time... and there's about $1,700 worth of Kettlebells, Maces & Clubs purchased new & used over a 5 year period.

[@CarmineCroons]

Great job brother. I'm 59 and love my kettlebells too. Peace

[@Freddy-wi5io]

Impressive effort. Even if the snatches arent quality the fact you can lift that overhead is impressive indeed. Your heart rate mustve been beating away 😂. Great job though!

[@alanbaskaev3907]

What a great vibe this dude has! Keep the good work mate. Peace

[@ivaneiring4732]

Тоже попробовал. Получилось 18+7 (левая рука совсем неловкая).

[@TheEtoneKapone]

now this is strength

[@kettlebellken]

Thanks Ethan ... just incremental gains over time. Preservation is the hard part

[@psimuv]

Very well done, indeed. Let me express my humble opinion, nonetheless. I think it could be more beneficial to reduce the weight and augment the quality of the movement. Anyway, this is an inspiration for everyone to keep active through the years.

[@kettlebellken]

Thanks for watching... indeed near max range for tall thin frame at 58 yrs, now 60. I only do those max efforts 2 or 3 times per year. But trust me I know my limits and work within those parameters. Core strength is everything as we age thus I devote alot of time in that domain, especially Turkish Getups (have done 1,000 in a Month 44lbs and 50 with 60lbs in 30 minutes)

[@WORKOUT_WORKSHOP]

Great work. Motivation

[@dariuszpotocki3286]

God job

[@gerbcn7054]

you’re gonna break your wrist , watch the technique! more is not always better…🙌

[@kettlebellken]

Thanks for watching and yes the technique was not the best but it was a max effort 3 years ago. Below is a recent attempt again at age 61. My wrists are strong checkout my club videos as well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqXJfXltlqloeqMfeature=shared

[@evanleesmith385]

Stumbled upon your videos today, and they're very inspiring. I'm a 31 y/old dad, and I have goals to maintain this type of strength and fitness at age 60-70. Keep it up!

[@kettlebellken]

Thanks for watching... key is consistency! But stretching & flexibility becomes essential to preserving Strength as we age. Start now in your 30s, I didn't discover Kettlebells & Functional Fitness until I was 50!

[@HouatSea]

Wow- here for this! 🤓

[@michaelyoon9355]

That is mad impressive.

[@kettlebellken]

Thanks. The above video was age 58 and the video below was age 57 when I completed 54 Unbroken Snatches with 70lbs @ Bodyweight 182lbs 6'5" kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2mtl5VoZ5ycqK8feature=shared

No lock out at the top on right side?

[@kettlebellken]

Indeed a shortfall

[@roryohalloran849]

@@kettlebellken Still very impressive

[@italiangypsy79]

@@kettlebellken are you left handed like me? i have that same problem with the 70lb KB cling. Im close to a full lockout on the right side. My left I can easily lock it out. Any suggestions on creating an equal balance?

[@kettlebellken]

Yes a lefty. Perhaps right arm ( non dominant) fatigues faster with heavier load, but more concentration on lockout is probably required too. On a side note, I have NOT been doing as many heavy TGUs (70-90lbs) since 2019 and thus believe my lockout strength has diminished

[@calicookstunes6530]

Really impressive man! It's a great motivation for me. Old man strength forever!!!

[@kettlebellken]

@calicookstunes6530 that was 3yrs ago still going strong at 61! See below... kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqXJfXltlqloeqMfeature=shared

@@kettlebellken I'm 49 got my kettlebells last year I'm made I only brought up to 18kg but it's been a challenging and fun but when I grow maybe I can be like you .

[@kettlebellken]

@@GLEN515 that's awesome, it's a transition most gym folks don't make. So good job learning a new training method and embracing KBs. They will make your body functionally strong and balanced.

[@ДенисЮвачев]

Чувак ты просто дистрофик.😂

[@uansari1]

Those aren’t snatches, but good effort.

[@kettlebellken]

Hey Usman thanks for watching... I agree form not the best on this set as I was already in a fatigued state after 60 Snatches with 65 & 75lbs. Also I am 6'5" 182lbs so the laws of physics are definitely working against my thin frame. Here's a better example with 60lbs at age 56 kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpKTZpSfmrZ8ba8

[@robertmotte1688]

usman; post a vid of you doing better then, soi boy

[@aubreygmcghee]

Nice job. Give it a little more hip drive and push your hips all the way through. Do a practice session and go back and forth between a lighter and heavier bell and really focus on using only the hip drive and very little arms.

[@ettoremajorana3220]

Its seems 22kgs

[@kettlebellken]

Definitely 32kg

[@TioVar2023]

You don’t like competition KBs?

[@kettlebellken]

Actually I do like them for high volume Snatches, as they offer more control & feel, just started using competition KBs in 2019. For most other exercises prefer standard KBs, especially for TGUs.

[@TioVar2023]

@@kettlebellken what’s your max weight for TGU? Do you normally train with a lighter weight?

[@kettlebellken]

@@TioVar2023 hey Paul thanks for visiting my channel. At age 57 I was snatching 88lbs 40kg 2 or 3 times per side. The majority of my workouts are usually 40-60lbs. Now at 59 reality is setting in & it's more about Preserving strength & flexibility.

[@kettlebellken]

@@TioVar2023 and yes TGUs (my fav) max 90lbs at age 56. Nowadays stay moderate 44-55lbs high volume and occasionally use 65-70lbs.

Inspirational.
