Well... 5 years ago I bought a 8kg kettlebell. I was doing the swing for about 20 minutes.. The next 3 days I could barely walk.. That was how bad I did this exercise.. Very bad I didn't touch the thing for 5 years after that. Yesterday, I tried again with my newly gained knowledge over the years. I did the swing for 30 minutes (deep breaths inbetween every 10-20 swings). While I DO feel it in my back and clutes today. It was no way near the disaster 5 years ago... This is a really good and helpful video. And you are not trying to sell me any bullshit, other than good solid advice.. Thanks you! ❤

[@ChristopherPizey]

I have arthritis, but I can still do the basic swing. I have been doing it for years using a 32KG kettlebell. But every time I watch your videos I pick up something that I’m not doing correctly. Keep up the good work. I hope to reach perfection one day.

[@lebe-stark]

Keep it up

[@SA-mj3uv]

That "stick" trick to correct hip hinge is a game changer! Great video!

[@stevenhuffnagel]

So glad you mention the “baby weight” phenomenon. Nothing worse than videos with pumped up men - with clearly no previous kettlebell training - performing an alleged “swing” with a mini kettlebell. I saw one bloke doing a “one arm swing” *throwing* a 10 kg kettlebell from one hand into the other. 😂

[@mikem4432]

as a 60plus male, I think another thing is to use a lighter weight until you get the basics right, also, for me I get tingling in my right hand fingers like a nerve pinch so it is a bit difficult to do these reps. something with the kettle movement, I never have that when I am doing wieghts.. I think kettleballs are called a kenetic exercise that puts a stress on your arms not normally associated with weights.

[@freespiritdamsel]

This is the best video of kettle bell swing form I’ve found. Thanks. Been struggling how to do it properly as I’ve heard that the spine has to be straight and perform the hinge in order to not put undue strain on the spine. Finally I can understand it.

[@lebe-stark]

You're welcome!

The stick for the hinge is a great cue. So is the weight tip - I started out with a very light weight and my form was terrible. Once I increased the weight, my form improved greatly.

I find with the kettlebell it’s really good for your stability. I find that Iam walking better and feel stronger all over. I have tried loads of things over the years but think this is the best piece of equipment you can incorporate in your daily workouts.

[@barryschwarz5960]

I'm a noob, but it looks like all most all the mistakes are fixed by hinging correctly. The exercise seem to be driving the hips forward and back.

[@lebe-stark]

Good spot, friend!

[@vincentj3093]

Ok- excellent tips - thanks

[@lebe-stark]

Glad it was helpful!

[@s-man5647]

for mistake 7, you can try doing swings holding a towel wrapped around the handle. because you don't have a rigid connection between the arm and the kettlebell, you'll know if you are using your arms to lift the kettlebell rather than momentum from the hips if the kettlebell hangs straight down from your hands at the top of the movement.

[@timkemp339]

Thanks

[@lebe-stark]

Thanks for the Super Thanks, Tim! 💙

[@RepairtheBreach5812]

You are the best in my opinion, the damn best

[@MyBetsie]

Nice video but... LS lifting that foot on a swing and lifting with the calf. Tut tut. LS should make a video about hinging ❤

[@trentbildstein5610]

I see a lot of videos of people drop way down on the back swing. The way I was taught was essentially your hands are up in your crotch when you bring it back. That helps keep my back straight so I'm guaranteeing the power comes from the hip hinge vs. trying to create power with my upper back. As you get to the higher weights, this becomes A LOT more more important, especially in avoiding injury.

[@mr.macdowell8183]

Thank you for making videos with such solid instruction! However, you never mentioned neck alignment in this video; in many of the video clips that you critiqued, the individuals fix their gaze forward and crane their necks at the bottom of their hinge. This causes undue strain on the neck, does it not?

[@lebe-stark]

Good point. We call it the "broken neck" syndrome. lol

[@philipeldred]

Great video thank you! 1 observation and 1 question. First, i really appreciate your pointing out how important timing is, letting the arms come down and into contact with the body before breaking the hip hinge. In my experience this is also key to minimizing bell flop by making the arc less circular (or perhaps making it a smaller segment of a much bigger circle) which keeps the bell from rounding the bottom of the circle and start moving back up again, so those two points could be usefully connected to each other. Second, why do you move your feet the way you do? I've seen you mention this in other videos and that it is deliberate, but what is the rationale? Thanks for spreading the good word on kettlebells!

[@lebe-stark]

Moving the feet is a technique I‘ve developed.

[@andyward8430]

I just start doing these recently and apparently I’m bend my knees to much. I feel like my hip hinge is good and I’m not using my arms too much to bring the weight up but I’m definitely in a much wider stance and bend my knees more than you are in this video.

[@686Impulse686]

I remember when I first started doing the kettlebell swing, I was told to feel like you are fing the air with each thrust of your hips. After that I never really forgot. But this video did show me I was bending my knees too much. I hope to correct this from here on out. Thanks for these great tips.

[@lebe-stark]

Glad to be of service!

[@wallycunningham5090]

Never heard the 'bonus mistake' at all before. Think I need erase and restart my whole swing form!

[@koukouvania]

is 12kg a good starting weight? (middle aged man); i just confirmed this by d/loading your ebook!

[@josemiguelmandolesi4199]

Kb swings. Always!

[@frankquinn6872]

My favourite cue for glute activation is to finish the swing as if you are trying to hold your credit card between your bum cheeks 😀 (obviously this is just a cue - a conventional wallet is better for everyday card storage 😉)

[@lizwilliams4993]

You didn't mention how they keep staring forward, bending the neck. You do keep yours in line with the spine, which is perfect form, just wasn't addressed. But hey, so much to focus on! I'm hypermobile so have to focus on every joint in every exercise! 😂 great video, love this ❤

[@lebe-stark]

Yes, you are right!

[@hunterXhamster]

I think that's what he means at 6:39 straight back vs straight spine

[@tonygutierrez4711]

#9, don’t confuse STRAIGHT with VERTICAL. Same with the squat.

[@nysurdatu5012]

People do the swing wrong because every KZbin fitness expert does it differently in their videos . Dan Jon has the best and simplest explanation on how to do the swing in my opinion

[@lebe-stark]

People do Swings wrong because they never do them, let alone give them the practice they deserve.
