Kettlebell Single Arm Bridge Chest Press

[@davidplyler8173]

There's lots of good KZbin kettlebell instructions out there and yours are at the top for easy to understand and implement.

[@durtyred86]

Was literally just thinking to myself about needing more chest workouts via kettlebell. I open KZbin and there it is. The man himself. I'm definitely going for mass so doubles it is.

[@crayzmarc]

He's also got one with exercise ball.

[@katieelrod8064]

Best KZbin channel for real learning! Thank you!

[@Michele-W.]

You are really GOOD! Your explanations - simply great! Thanks! 🔥❤️... And creativity seems to be a strength of yours too !!! All the best from Zürich 🇨🇭

Hi Mark! Would you make a cool-down video please? With tips for knee injury recovery. Thank you! Great content!

[@benvanheerden2395]

Man! I love your work. I will be able to use this to work my chest with recovering rotator cuff. Thanks!

[@mysphyt101]

Love your videos Mark. Clear, concise, effective. Started kettle belling primarily because of your videos and these...interesting times. Thank you. It is really appreciated.

[@inglesconalan5360]

Same here

This man is so trustable

[@theodoreboosalis]

My favorite KB chest movement. I do them using DBs and KBs. I find KBs to be more difficult since it requires some additional stabilization not as necessary to a DB. That's why I prefer the KB version. TY Mark for the demo - as usual well done! :)

[@marcusHabs]

Really like your kettlebell instruction vids. Much needed in these covid times in home gys around the world. Thumbs up!

[@raphaelmorrata8905]

Very interesting. Can t wait to try this !

[@ossian1977]

Another great video, keep it up and thanks for sharing the knowledge with us!

[@jerryh.miller1704]

As usual, great video. Thank You, Sir!!

Thanks Friends 🙏💪💥🎯

[@sheikhfaraziqbal2860]

These videos are an education.

[@WisdomShortvids]

You hijacked my search for a keto curry sauce lol never mind great vid - something I have been looking for.. cheers Mark :)

[@raphaelmorrata8905]

Hello mark and thanks a lot for this interesting upload. You recommand to not do this exercice chest out in order to not hyper extend the lower back, but what about the scapulas? Thanks a lot for your good work

[@gpuglisi23]

Id recommend glute band around the thighs, using it to push agains to further activate/stimulate the glute medius

[@crayzmarc]

Like this idea. Thanks

[@mikebizzleuk]

Mark, your videos are excellent. Binged your whole channel during rona season! Can you do a video breaking down kettlebell swings and cleans with the foot movement please? Would be very appreciated 👊

[@MarkWildman]

Sure. That would be a fun series of videos

[@TheFury295]

Thank you

[@crayzmarc]

Is this similar to the press on the exercise ball but without the ball? Targeting the same muscles for sexiness?

[@uj8719]

Great videos. Have learnt a lot from them. From what I gather, kettlebell training has the benefits of increased core firing and shoulder stability, and is perhaps superior for building endurance and work capacity along with strength. Are there any other benefits exclusive to kettlebells, say over barbell training? Thank you for your great work!

[@humo.5648]

He has a video on that I think dumbbell Vs Kettlebell

[@farstrider79]

It's good to mix them. I love swings with bells but hate OHP, I prefer dumbbells for that. No one thing is perfect for everything, just experiment to see what works for you.

[@otismanousakos3946]

Nice. So I can add this as a complex movement during TGU. I'd love to see you do a 5-10 minute video of you doing a combination of movements of say TGU, goblet squat, swing and clean and press. Not a whole workout but a primer would be great. Or will that be in the app? 🙏🏼

[@otismanousakos3946]

And maybe some math to accompany it. Scaling and such.

[@panagiotislepelis8177]

Im experiencing elbow pain during this does anyone know what it could be from? I make sure my grip is correct, im not flaring my elbows and my core i tight, but after a session the inside of my right elbow always hurts.

[@salimosman8188]

Have to concentrate on the kettle bell grip to barbell grip...so easy to fall into old habits

[@warrior_monk_athletics]

"Half of my clients are actresses and models" ... Hmm, dream job alert ! :D Seriously, I really love your content and your no-nonsense approach to training. Also your sense of humor =) I am a young martial arts/calisthenics coach, and I find myself wondering if you have some sort of "mentorship" program, or if it's possible to come and study with you. Maybe not right now though... ^^ In any case, thank you so much, and take care !

[@Annoppie]

How do you incoporate this in the tetris of training if you also want to do the TGU? Would it then be heavy GU and light press for one week and then the next week switch it around? Would it then take longer to increase weight?

[@ColdSteel-dz3pf]

Just curious Mark have you ever worked with a guy named Bryan Marsh, he’s big on fitness and stunts on film and music videos. As always great instructions!

[@brianjong8945]

What would be the timing if I was doing the math for adding this into the program?

[@kevobalchan5457]

don't have this but am very interested in purchasing ...

[@ethanyoung5582]

great video !!! so appreciated !!! can i take this type of breathe is kind of unique ,in order to keep the ab tight through only this press ?

[@MarkWildman]

yes

[@heckl0r]

These vs "the sexy maker"? Is the SM a progression from here (more instability) or should they both be swapped around for variation on upper body days? Thanks for all the awesome videos 👍

[@MarkWildman]

Swap them under normal circumstances

[@phpillai]

Great Video Mark. Huge fan from India. Can you recommend a good brand of KB here in India? Looking to pick one up and start my journey. Thanks. Cheers.

[@MarkWildman]

sorry mate. no idea what available in India

[@phpillai]

@@MarkWildman thanks mark.

[@ejay1474]

Mark please comment on programming....I could assume standard principles apply...more volume/hypertrophy, more load/neuromuscular strength....but what would you suggest for GPP blend of these over 8-12 weeks, what 2 or 3 other ex’s fit in well for a 20 min whole body routine....next stop KB swings, snatches, pull ups...? In circuit or one after the next for sets of 5....never quite sure what to do...... PS: What’s your opinion of Pavel’s Grease the Groove method, doing a set of these once every hour all day long, vs a concentrated dose?

[@MarkWildman]

Grease the groove is great. I’ll try to make a video on the rest today

[@sirmattblack1]

Thanks Mark another excellent video .Interesting question for you. Just as lockdown was about to happen in the UK Mid March, I ordered a bench and some dumbbells. While I was researching what to do with them I discovered Pavel Tsatsouline, ordered some Kettlebells (10Kg,Kg16, 20Kg, 24 Kg), then came across your channel and Bodytribe channel, (your channel is better by the way) and supplemented these with a 4Kg BodyRip Clubbell from amazon UK. When I progressed from two hand to one hand inner outer circles (300in a session) and shield casts (150 in a session) I supplemented that with a Xenios Tacfit 10Kg and started two handed inner/outer circles with that but only low volume (60 in a session). During all of this period I still haven’t received the bench and dumbbells I ordered due to some really bad couriers in the UK who are taking advantage of the current situation and myself and many other customers have found things go ‘missing’ at the courier and we have to wait for more stock and see if the stuff eventually arrives. I have been offered refund but as currently I could resell the stuff for more than I paid for anyway, I decided to keep the order and keep my options open. So…..my question is….when this stuff arrives should I keep them so that I have more options or should I just sell on (except the rubber mat which I need). Dumbbell people swear that they are best and Kettlebell people swear they are best etc, from what I have learnt over last three months, I am inclined to think that if the option was Kettlebell/Clubbell OR Dumbbell I would go for Kettlebell/Clubbell BUT I now have the option of both is it worthwhile keeping the bench and dumbbells to add variety and options? I am not particularly desperate for the money and if nothing else more equipment marks out my territory better from the wife BUT how would you use dumbbells as an extra option in a mainly kettlebell/clubbell program?

[@stormrider1119]

I had a similar situation, had the option to choose between KBs or KBs and Dumbells and bench etc. I settled for only KBs simply because they are so versatile but don't take up so much space indoors, hence it's the option for me. Mark's videos definitely help as he has shown me tons of new KB modalities. Obviously if you keep the dumbells as well you'll have more 'options' but I'd imagine Mark could recreate those options somehow with KBs.

[@gordonzola1412]

I feel your pain after the couriers 'lost' my RDX wrecking ball order during early COVID, but, I got a refund so no one died.

[@MarkWildman]

I’d keep them.

[@sirmattblack1]

@@gordonzola1412 yes a lot of gear getting 'lost' makes you want to do a two handed shield cast in their heads lol

[@sirmattblack1]

@@MarkWildman Thanks Mark - yes if/when they arrive I will keep hold of them

[@JanKenk]

Anything special we should pay attention to if we are doing a two arm version?

[@MarkWildman]

don't smash you fingers together at the top of the movement when using kb's

[@JanKenk]

@@MarkWildman thank you for your reply

When I do this I don't feel my chest firing seems that I use my shoulders more

[@EnduranceRoom]

try keeping elbows closer to ribs instead of flared out. it will let you engage pecs and lats, plus save your shoulders

[@SamSung-pm5bw]

Also try pinching your shoulder blades together and keep them down like you're trying to put them in your back pockets. But not so much it causes rib cage rise.

[@RecordSisi]

Sometimes you have non favorable insertion ( muscular and bones ) that are gonna make you use shoulders more than chest .

[@alexy8520]

You can't beat bench I'm sorry. Kettlebells are amazing but for chest development they are simply useless!

[@EnduranceRoom]

Alex Yearsfunc bench is great, but you can get tremendous results with kettlebells in nearly all aspects of physical development, including chest. When considering the world at the moment, a bench may not be readily available, whereas a kettlebell is a gym with a handle on it. Having the knowledge to use it, in place of gym equipment that we may not have access to, is worthwhile and kind of the point of Mark making these videos lately, to give people some ideas and options to keep strong.

[@tdittmer13]

Why don't you use chalk?

[@MarkWildman]

because i don't need it for these lifts

Why do you breathe like this.
