KETTLETIP - PERFECT YOUR KETTLEBELL SWING

HERE ARE SOME TIPS FROM RYAN SHANAHAN OF KETTLEWORX ON HOW TO PERFECT YOUR KETTLEBELL SWING

Tight Grip: Squeeze the handle tight with your hands to increase arm tone!

Feet: Should be slightly wider than shoulder width. Keep 70% of your bodyweight balanced on your heels to target the glutes

Swing: Avoid lifting with the arms.

Swing Height: UP to eye-level, no higher. If you’re swinging too high, consider advancing to a heavier kettlebell.

Swing Low: Reach through between your legs with a medium knee bend.

Posture: Back straight throughout entire swing.

Hip Thrust: Your hips are the main power source during the Swing. Push hips back during the Low swing and thrust your hips forward during the High swing.

Secret Ingredient: Top of the swing, PAUSE & SQUEEZE your GLUTES + AB’s for a 2 second count to maximize muscle lift and firmness.
