[@timmyhassett]

That was short and to the point. Just right. More like this please

[@timmyhassett]

@Sonny Dins yeah. You're right. I watched more of them. 👍

[@numbat0072]

yes , often these workout vids babble on with useless info / crap 4ever !

[@BobJoefilm]

Thanks Mark. I am a musician who is becoming stage fit again. At 72 years old and I am returning to training with an 8 kilo bell. It feels pretty good and my general mobility has transformed in just 5 weeks of 20 minutes a day bell and general stretching moves. I am careful not to overdo things, but stay within my limits of comfort and breathing. It's a great piece of kit to take on trips. Your training videos really helped me to understand more about what I am doing. Thank you very much for your work.

[@pakoti96]

Wish you to rock that stage well, Bob! I myself am a musician who started slacking on fitness recently. I had a gig recently in the middle of a park, so no car to the stage. Having to carry huge bass amps for 15 minutes straight is a great motivation to pick up kettlebelling :)

[@wallflee]

U go, gurl!

[@imanoldsouloldsoul9316]

Well done! To further great results take diet seriously. Good multivitamin and enough protein. Get Enough of fruit as well. Real health starts with diet and everything else falls into place.

[@positivedennis]

Nice, at 65 I do alternate kettlebell and dumbbell routines 3 times a week

[@tomperkins5657]

OMG! I will be 72 in two months and because of COVID I can't use Planet Fitness anymore. Today will be my first KB workout.

[@IraJones-rd9qr]

Bought this for my youngest to develop basic form for single hand kettlebell work. kzbin.infoUgkxtaDAl93XF8wxJhssTtjIFjzid82wglva It has a nice grip on it, just a little rough so it isn't slippery. I was doing a few rotator cuff exercises to test and worked well for those movements I'd been doing with a regular dumbbell. Cool thing you can do is hold it in your hand for door-knob turns to work the forearm and grip. Note: it's small, almost all handle, but that's what I expected given the weight. Smallest I've worked with before is 15lbs, so it was kind of funny to see the difference 10lbs makes.

[@anastasisgagatsis7538]

Mark I really want to thank you for these videos you've made. I purchased kettlebells around 2 months ago and your videos have helped me a lot. Please keep it up and many thanks again!

[@massspike]

Rewatched this after starting kettlebells last year and imho this is still the best introduction video...period.

[@andreayaya]

Mark, I love your training on the kettlebells, especially the "clean". FINALLY training that is clear, precise, and to the point. I am watching everything on your channel and loving it. I would pay for more kettlebell training from you if I could. I feel I am finally making progress with the kettlebell. Thank you!

[@TheKG636]

Been training with kettlebells for about 6 years, still learning tons from this guy, awesome knowledge.

[@warriorqueen94]

Thank you Mr. Wildman. Your kettlebell instructional videos are the best I've seen on youtube. Short, to the point with all relevant information along with enough demonstration to put the point across well.

[@devamsharma4358]

I've just introduced myself to kettlebelling and this is exactly what i needed. You're my guru, Mark! Thank you.

[@sam_metal]

As a former RKC devotee, CrossFitter, and weightlifter, thank you for this simple and honest video. Very nice explanation of the benefit of kettlebells as compared to other modalities with clean, precise movement. Kudos!

[@dimitrisk.875]

Simplicity at it’s finest, thank you!

[@jasonwelsh417]

I have to say my man, you have about the nicest KB press form out there. I constantly see people getting lots of reps starting nowhere near the proper rack position, and going nowhere near the full lockout (even respected trainers like Dan John, just look at his 'perfect workout' video), and when I see them move lots of weight for lots of reps I get tempted to sacrifice my form a bit, but then I watch one of your pressing videos to keep my mind in check. So thanks

[@waynebruyns5817]

I love the way you demo your exercises, I am battling with a longstanding glute, injury and am trying to rehabilitate it with a combo of strength and mobility training! You definitely taught me a few tricks thanks for the great content!

[@libertycowboy2495]

I love that your videos are straight forward and to the point.

[@elke1942]

Short and to the point! I love it.

[@bernardvajda4321]

Just bought the kettlebell and omg the workout variation you can do with them is amazing!!!

[@kennethnesbitt8311]

Dear Mark Wildman Thank you for all the information you share.I have learned so many things about clubs and kettlebells. I now can perform most off the exercises correctly,and that feels good. Thanks to you.

[@mdcruz]

Thanks Mark Wildman! I’m Just beginning my journey into Kettlebell workouts. Your information in comprehensive, detailed, accurate, smart... As a long time martial artist, Ving Tsun & Kickboxing/Mo Duk Kwan, an 82nd ABN Veteran, I can appreciate the practicality of your approach. I am 59 years old and working on getting healthy again (unfortunately my health took a turn for the worse/ no biggie, nothing that can’t be improved). The functionality of your methods is very valuable, I find (especially at this stage in my life). I am also a physician (MD, Family Medicine) and am impressed with your level of expertise (kinesiology, etc,...). I sincerely appreciate your efforts to educate those interested. It is quite a service to humanity.

[@brunoperovic6464]

Great presentation, up close well demonstrated, so simple and clear

[@lpark8]

Great, concise videos. I’m putting together a workout plan and gear purchase, rejigging my workout and home gym post-injury. After checking out other channels this one is now my go to 🙏👍

[@KoltronZer0]

Came here after watching you make Jack Black do kettle bell swings, thanks for the instructional vids I really appreciate it.

[@Rickert11]

Great info packed into a short time frame, excellent!

[@tyt6877]

Thanks for all this info man, just subscribed and I'm now making my way through a lot of your content, I appreciate your way of explaining things and how thorough and measured you are. I'm a few weeks into kettlebell training and your content will really help me and my way of doing things not get hurt haha. Again, thanks.

[@BJKD24]

Thank you so much for the instructions man!!! Since the gym closed down again until the 19th of January and my Kettlebells got in, I know how to keep me busy😁💪🏼

[@robkenyon6830]

Ive seen a load of videos of all sorts of people teaching you all sorts of fitness and they bore me to tears and seem up themselves. This fella seems good!

[@guilhermelimaclinicadejoelhos]

Simple and well explained: amazing!

[@muffinmyshihtzu111]

I am so grateful to you for guiding us in such simple ways 🙏

[@grahamlloyd2838]

Thank you Mr. Wildman...your videos are excellent. I'm using them to recover from an old rotator cuff injury and to give myself a better quality of life!

[@machyavelli4890]

Mark, as always, a highly informative vid that's clear with excellent presentation. Thanks!

[@jimmcnerney9440]

Mark Wildman is an excellent speaker and presenter. Brief and right on point.

[@MarkWildman]

thank you

[@traceyallen4351]

One of the best videos that describes how kettlebells are different from dumbbells/barbells. Winter is coming. My outdoor exercise routine will need become an indoor one. I have been struggling to choose what to invest in. I need something for both cardio and strength training. I have been watching a lot of Kettlebell videos. This one video helped me choose. I have been working out with one 5lb weight and one 10lb weight. I will invest in two 15lbs. Thank you. I subscribed without even watching your other videos. That is how informative and great this one video was.

[@henridenavarre7892]

This vid is pure GOLD, thank you Mark

[@ryantan341]

didn't realize kettlebells were so versatile! I really appreciate your video's I'm stuck in lockdown in Australia and these workouts help a lot!

[@Rageof1000Mongooses]

This is probably the best kettlebell intro video I have ever seen. Well done.

[@TheAnatomyofTherapy]

Absolutely essential. Love this stuff man

[@GurneroMaelstrom]

thank you kind sir. You're a good person for sharing these techniques with us. Greetings from south side of Mexico

[@MarkWildman]

greetings to mexico from los angeles

[@tomperkins5657]

YES!! Simple, easy to understand and able to set my own pace. Some of the "Beginner Kettlebell" videos replaced waterboarding at Guantanamo.

[@MalcEYoung]

Great videos... really helped me in with technique and some lock down workouts... be great if you could post advice for HIIT kettlebell routines with variations for upper, lower body and core

[@mymoon4748]

As a beginner I will ask everybody to leave the house and take the windows with them :/

[@joeg6280]

I'm glad I watched this. Best demonstration of a Turkish get up that I've seen, and I was finally able to do a set of them after watching this today!

[@dtw4326]

Still coming back to basics again and again this channel should have a million subscribers

[@DeFonsekaUSA]

The guidance you give is spot on. I would like your thoughts on battle-ropes and how you perceive their value

[@juliehock6059]

Thanks, a great video. I like to watch the movement and you are clear. I still have some issues with cleaning the bell, especially on the left side!!! More practice drills I guess. My trainer designs Hellion sets, which I also find really good for the concentration and getting the form.

[@aliciagonzales8195]

Wow thank you for breaking down simple movements

[@gils1930]

The topic of using one kettlebell to promote cross-body stabilization was incredibly helpful for me. I have two 25 lb kettlebells and one 35 lb kettlebell. I am doing the basics with the one 35 lb bell and I can tell the difference. Thank you very much Mark.

[@nickvescio-franz4337]

What a fantastic video. Will be watching more

[@reelchaoscharters3605]

Great videos just started watching picked up my first kettle two days again and love it

[@teenamcewan3013]

How many sets/reps should we start out with? I'm totally new at this. Thank you & I appreciate any help you give me

[@yukimuraseichii2746]

I´ve been searching this video everywhere! Thanks!

[@michelleocampo3708]

[@lagilagifairuz6194]

Great video. Really appreciate this 🙏

[@pragzter]

conscise and clear. thanks coach!

[@jamesdavies8822]

Great video, techniques and tips!

[@bluearctik3980]

Found this channel six weeks ago - got myself a bell, started swinging and squatting and pressing and my back pain in GONE!! Thank you Mark for the great information and coaching!!

[@jakeblaze7663]

How many heavy was your very first kettlebell?

[@nick_stein]

Same here mate. Lifting weights is the way to get rid of a lot of types of a specific back pain.

[@choosetobehappy6979]

Nice job. Thanks brother.

[@SuperElott]

Very nice especially for beginners. Nice tunes as well!

[@ej-fo8pd]

As a beginner, I think I am going to wear a bike helmet...till I am more stable.😷

[@missmimi6817]

I know right?

[@iwantlee9510]

xD

[@nkeith22011]

Me too ☺️

[@FrankZen]

That is a fear of mine!

[@Mistwalker67]

Lol

[@eye-leenlove]

Dope! On point! Thank you!

[@sureshmedimi]

Thanks for all your videos, started likeness towards Kettlebell watching your videos. Thanks again for sharing pro tips with us. Love the snacks you suggested in a different video.

[@taquinas85]

Keep it simple don't over do it and build up over time. When you lose the form or can't complete the rep that's the time to quit your session. It's okay just rest your muscles and attempt again at a later time, higher reps or more weight or longer duration. May take months or years. But never push beyond your failed form. So many factors can contribute to that, lack of sleep, having alcohol or simply being tired from being over worked. Start back up when you're well rested. If you can't make time for Kettlebells just simply walk to get your heart rate up.

[@carrieannparry2571]

Thank you for sharing 😊

[@MarkWildman]

Glad to be of assistance sir

[@lgambis]

good stuff--started with this video, and this playlist--following Tim Ferris' diet recommendation and pairing it with kettlebells. thanks Mark!

[@johnnywishbone932]

Thank you Mark!

[@ptb2314]

Perfect form

[@OldManNutcakez]

Great summary video!

[@Phillips1758]

Great explanation. Did you do the breakdown of each of the exercises described?

[@christophhovel2730]

Great video, and probably the only video on YT, where the trainers leaves his shirt on, thanks for that, too 😀

[@jimjimmyjames59]

So integrating this into gym time!

[@CDubs754]

Great video, greetings and respect from Munich, Germany

[@CremeDeLaMeme.]

thanks sir very useful

[@TrinityRock30]

to the point, thank you. explanation afterwords is perfect (reason why) I love it perfect!!!

[@user-gz2sq9rw2r]

thanks alot man!!

[@rag2576]

GOOD. Learned. Thanks.

[@tanivincent2452]

It has helped to observe that I can do a routine without dressing down. I have the perfect stretch jeans for when I have a long morning or afternoon home studio workout.

[@JustinColletti]

This is great-can you do/have you done one for clubs?

[@LukeFG]

Great video

[@whoslacks]

Good stuff; thanks!

[@alexandrupastiu5775]

i found your videos a few days ago and i bought a 16 kg kettle-bell, since it is quite hard to get training via a coach during this times and adding the nerd math video you did, should i start with doing, for example swings with both hands for 1 minute, on the minute for 10 minutes, or 1 hand for 1 minute for 10 and then switch to other and then move to the clean/squat/etc ? i`m basically learning the moves and would like to start correctly, seems we got 1 more month if not more of quarantine so limited to home training. thanks in advance!

[@jandlugos3609]

Thanks bro💪🙂

[@timriley69]

Great summary of the main movements. One thing I have struggled with is how to warm up before a kettlebell without.

[@Judged-Dread]

I've been using a 10litre bottle of water as a kettle/dum Bell since quarantine 😂 bring back the gym. Still gets it done lol thanks Mark

[@verbon47]

i dont even miss the gym when i have an kettlebell. all you really need for an good workout is an KB, pullup/dips bar, and maybe an cardio machine. also i JUST got the 12 kg KB and doing cleans with them is HARD AS SHIT. i can easily lift a proper ammount but KB are a whole different ball game tbh

[@Vurti0]

Im gonna start doing these! This was a really good video. Nice to see a guy demonstrate with his shirt on. Subbed!

[@annabrown1201]

Thanks Mark 👍🏽

[@trusarmor4957]

Wildman ... what a GREAT name for a Physical Fitness/Athletics Professional

[@gumbo610]

Great info

[@lancethiele1563]

Can you post a list of squat exercises from simple to complex and breakout exercises for specific issues with the squat? And what about the soft style version of these exercises?

[@jsremaley]

Hey, Mark...how about a video focusing on the press family of movements for the kettlebell?

[@Bbbecker]

Thanks your video's! Compatible with Chen Tai Chi. Don't know how long you've been here but welcome to Denver.

[@anatoliyfrolov2054]

Hi, respect from Russia!)

[@cammantia3482]
