[@rickteeden8656]

I’m 70 and I workout 5 days a week and I always do 100 kettlebell swings (4x25 or 5x20 depending on the kg’s) along with a number of kettlebell exercises. Also, I was taught to open the hand at the top of the press and snatch. It helps keep the wrist straight and relieves the stress on the wrist.

I love your focus on fitness as a supplement to life and not the other way around.

[@tbx59]

As someone that has used Mark's programs to get into the best shape I've been in 10+ years - remember weight loss is accomplished in the kitchen, and one of the easiest ways to get (extra) exercise in (and easiest to micro-load) is start by parking a little further from the entrance every time, then start getting somewhere early and walking around a little bit more every time, then do some stairs or hills, etc. If you increased your steps by 10 a day, you'd have added over a mile a day by the end of the year.

[@anchorpointtactical6707]

Thank you for the quality of your information and instruction! I was laughing at your comments about working on the farm. People ask me why I like Kb's so much. There are lots of reasons, but on top of the list is it makes me feel like I did when I was a kid and working on the farm. There's no better feeling mentally or physically than the satisfaction of working hard. And working hard with your friends and family isn't really work. It's fun and makes good memories!

The fabricator! Definitely someone who would be fun to hang out with! Absolutely digging the ClubBell program. Lots of great instruction and a road map that will last for years with the Wildman Club. I am doing it 2 days a week with KB's swings hand to hand using Pavel's method 2 days a week as well. Swimming 3-5 days a week for about 45 minutes in the ocean. The most important thing to me is that I have been able to train without injury following the programs! And at almost 75 years of age that is important to me. I am thinking about the TGU' program because I am definitely a puss with that one. The Club bell program addresses it at some level. But, TGU I think is the missing link. Hopefully swinging bells until the last days on the Water Planet. Thanks Mark, for absolutely top shelf instruction!

@markwildman "Stand up, to get up" perfect punchline.

[@erenjaegerbomb8653]

After watching your videos for a few months with increasing intrigue as I continued my usual calisthenics and mainstream gym stuff, I finally tried lateral training with side to side swings, low to high and one arm club. I'm deconditioned but in the opposite direction of overweight; though I have had periods of enthusiastic training in my life (I'm 37), I've recently spent years on the couch and withered away until I was pretty miserable hobbling round the house. This long story is just for me to say, I've never performed any exercise that changed my life as immediately and dramatically as training rotation. I'd already been training again for a few months, but that movement melted the lock in my neck and shoulders, re-educated/re-connected my back and glute muscles, and got all my body firing and communicating as one team in a way that all my previous diverse and educated training had never touched. 3 years ago I was telling people I was getting arthritis in my left knee cos it was crunching and sensitive; those swings healed my left knee and hip in the first few days, as it exposed the profound weakness of my left side and began correcting it. I'm calling it the Jesus exercise cos in 3 days it brought me back to life and made a cripple walk freely again. Now when I hear you talk about how fundamental and essential these movements are for humans, I think you might be on to something 😉Thanks Mark, you're doing important work well

[@crayzmarc]

Forgive me, What exactly was the Jesus move and was it with Kettlebell or Club?

Training rotation, I believe. Gonna have to look that one up. Sounds amazing

[@erenjaegerbomb8653]

@@crayzmarc The low to high heavy club move, mostly. Both sides then side to side swing. You can do it with kettlebell as long as you're super mindful. It should feel like walking, in the sense that the swings are powered by alternating leg drive, with feet planted. It will expose any imbalance or sedantary muscle, as the full body is required to do it smoothly. It should feel like constant equilibrium in motion the whole time, each swing feeling like a wave of tension from the foot, up the back and out to the hands like a cascade of dominos

I have always said this about bros who point out having a 6-pack: just because you have them doesn't mean they're functional. Any actor can tell you the best definition comes from being starved and dehydrated and those actors aren't doing their own stunts. I am currently trying to work up to 15 minute swings since I canceled my gym membership (for various reasons.) After seeing a lady do those on her balcony in a short, I knew I had to get back into kettlebells. I took a college class back when I was twenty but I never had a gym since that had them. Maybe it's because they are too convenient.

[@dadbod7510]

I was told by a gym coach when I was 16 "you don't play sport to get fit, you get fit to play sport" that has stuck with me ever since. My work is quite physical, so I replicate the way I work at the gym i.e 30 second intervals, move around (keep heart rate up) and repeat. Then stretching/yoga to finish. Im 42, lean and outperform most guys in their 20s I work with. As a professional, gym and kettle work supplements my career, helps me avoid injury and keeps me working longer with better output. I see so many at the gym doing 6 reps then taking a 5 minute break inbetween, and have often thought, what real life situation does that replicate. Also people are so quick to up the weight but mastering a weight, speed changes, additional rotations, changing angles is a great way to mix things up imo. Great video thanks

Mark I would love to know your input on the different effects of Kettlebell sport style training vs hardstyle? Do they have the same or similar effects and benefits and can they both be used in the manner you mention in the video with the same effect or similar or will the outcomes differ? Do you happen to have a video on this and if not would you consider making a video on it. I'm asking because kettlebell sport seems to have a more structured environment in being able to compete which adds visible goals and achievements. I have mainly focused on hardstyle myself but have been intrigued by kettlebell sport. I just don't want to switch over only to find that it doesn't give the same benefits.

That me at 380 my fucking lower back always pitch everytime I start to try to get back into shape, then I am down for 1 or 2 weeks before I can walk again. Destorys my motivation fairly quick

[@ChSasifras]

If you are still struggling, walking might be the best activity to start with. Increasing your step count and your pace will begin building your cardio without as much pressure on your joints as running and jogging. Don't forget to stretch out your hamstrings, calves, and feet. Then, if you have a kettlebell already or a sturdy tote bag you can fill up with a blanket around some cans (so they don't shift around on top of each other,) you can build it into your walks as a farmer's carry with optionally shifting your shoulders forward, center, and backward, always switching hands every 30-60 seconds. You can also do a shoulder carry like you see in the video before he does an overhead press or eventually the overhead press as well. The point is to start small and low to gradually build up to what is seens as "working out." All movement is work we have to spend energy to accomplish. If we go by the analogy of "like riding a bike, you never forget" then we can add to that you would never ride the same bike you haven't touched for a few to several years without doing maintenance on it first. Oil it up, tighten some gears, and don't go too far for the first ride until you know it will run smoothly.

[@MarekKE-ei6ec]

I exercise 6 times a week, the total exercise time is about 400 minutes with various aids, including clubbells, macebells, kettlebells... However, I cannot bring myself to practice any "drill" for endurance strength. I find it extremely boring... I practice a lot of repetitions (20-40 per set) only with CB, MB and KB. I literally enjoy other types of training with the help of slow repetitions, feeling, isometrics (which is immediately followed by isotonics). Exercise should be varied. Doing hundreds of repetitions of swings, snatches, DC, etc. during one training seems reasonable to me to do at most once a week or once every 10 days. When Mark mentions working on the farm, isometric strength is also used on the farm. And isometric strength isn't just about X or XY minutes of light weight isometrics (eg carrying 10kg kettlebells in each hand). I'm not criticizing it, let everyone practice as they want. However, it is necessary to understand the fact that exercise designed for endurance strength builds muscle volume minimally. Just look at the number of KB, CB and MB lecturers (Mark and the blond Dutch guy don't really belong there though...) who have the bodies of ordinary building builders. Just bodies like "I can't say for sure if you're doing weight training...". For example, Jeronimo Milo or Lebe Stark (he is better off) or similar. Strength training (especially when it comes to endurance) simply won't build a body that will make women drool over you. It will lack certain aesthetics. That's why NOBODY should limit himself only to exercises with KB, CB and MB, but should also add resistance bands, and at least 1/4 of "bodybuilding" exercises. Isolation exercises should have their place for everyone who is involved in body training. Doing hundreds of repetitions of strength exercises with a kettlebell is brutally boring and just destroys the joints. Every KB enthusiast should devote a lot of time to sit-ups, because the lower back bends much more often than it pulls the chest to the knees... Minimalism in exercises and types of load is the road to hell.

I get that it’s not the point, but the M1009 CUCV is cool. To the point, I’m a 61yo retired Navy guy. 6’1”, 225# and sedentary job and lifestyle. Really confused about all the stuff out about what I call functional fitness. But want to start something. All that said this is intriguing.

I’m just here to scope out that sweet truck collection 👀

I just got a 25 lb club today... My kettlebells continue to collect dust and shame me with their presence. I always feel like I SHOULD do kettlebell's... Maybe I'll give this Pavel 10 minute thing a try.
