*By functional I mean you can comfortably swing or carry it **bestgym.equipment** around as one would expect of a kettlebell weight. By versatile I mean the protective coating does not prevent attaching magnetic micro-plates to increase the weight, so, for example, a 35 pound kettlebell can be increased by up to 5 pounds in weight or possibly a bit more by attaching magnetic micro-plates.*

I hate when people just tell to lift heavier and heavier. This was really necessary and technical video i should have watched one year back. Thanks man!

This is one of the best tutorials I've seen for anything fitness related, you should be proud of it!

I agree!

the best kettlebell swing tutorial I found, thank you a lot!

WELL. i am a complete beginner, and this video is exactly what i need and was looking for. may you be blessed for saving many from injury and, through proper instruction, aiding encouragement to folks wanting to improve their strength/health !

Thank you so much. I’m at the end of my third week with a kettlebell and I keep pulling muscles and getting pains in areas I’m not even trying to work out lol. I’ve watched so many tutorials but none of them break down each movement. They just say “like this!” and run through the entire movement at normal speed. Seeing each fundamental movement broken down is invaluable and is sure to save me a lot of aches and pains and injuries later on! 👍

Best instruction I've seen.

This is the absolute best explanation of the mechanics of the swing. Everyone else has "beginner 101" yet they are introducing actual workouts, and completely ignore the mechanics for correctness of movement. Thanks for this.

Yes, yes yes, you nailed it.

Thank you for showing what form is supposed to look like. I appreciate you for not making love to camera being impressed with yourself. I've been doing these wrong and getting back strain, your "chop" explanation helped me with my form

This video is definitely for beginners. I like your simple progressions to the full swing. You are the first person to teach the preparatory movements. I am definitely going to follow your technique and build up to the full kettlebell swing. Thanks for taking the time to teach the kettlebell swing.

Thanks, Krishna! Glad you found us and that the video was so helpful.

I found it fascinating to watch the progression of developing the skills and muscles to perform a good kettlebell swing. This is one of the best how to videos I have ever seen.

This is a great tutorial. I won't even say it's for beginners. It covers the safe, proper most beneficial way to get into the swing for anyone who doesn't want to suffer musculoskeletal injuries.

Thank you so much for this video. Instead of simply discussing form and what muscles to engage or saying that we need to keep everything tight to be safe with the KB swing you actually provided an easy to follow tutorial so that I don’t go into this as a beginner and practice without knowing true correct form because even a few poorly formed swings could lead to injury 🙃

I finally believe I can master this motion thanks to this tutorial. Beast mode!!

One of the best tutorials on this movement/exercise! Excellent!

I love training and teaching Kettlebells and I love the movement patterns that you demonstrate this break down is rather fabulous :)

This is the most helpful kettlebell swing video, thank you!

Excellent tutorial. Best so far!

I've been trying to learn the proper form for this, and I think this is one of the best KZread tutorials I've found so far. Great job. But I would have appreciated seeing the full swing in action.

the best explanation video for beginners. Thanks for your sharing. God bless!

Great tutorial, thank you!

Next explanation I’ve come across. Thank you!✌🏾👍🏾

Yes I can!!! THANK YOU!!! 💪🏻🤓♥️‼️

Very informative and excellent instruction!

That looks correct and I will follow this advice for my kettlebell swing training.. I was 100% doing it wrong so far

This is so informative. Thanks

The best video on teaching kettlebell. I just hut myself last week, spine injury. Went too hard, too fast with 20kg kettlebell swings. I wish I would have seen this video ealier. Please be careful everyone.

Glad this is useful for you! Regarding the full swing, do you mean more of a CrossFit-style overhead swing? Brandon is RKC/StrongFirst trained, so this swing he demonstrates here isn't much lower than the full Russian-style swing.

This guy is informative and gives a good simple explanation. His video, along with "How to do a kettlebell swing" by Bodyfit by Amy, are the best kettlebell swing videos on the internet.

These movements look like a great way to get acquainted with the kettlebell without injury. When I'm ready to incorporate the kettlebell into my routine I will start with these movements.

What kettlebell weight is used in the video?

As a beginner,how do I know what is an ideal weight for me? I currently only bicep curl 12kg.. I want one for lots of different movements...or do I need more than one for that?

Exactly what I need, I have been told I can do this safely with my diastasis recti, do you agree? Excellent.

As long as you are generating the power from your glute and keeping your core tight and back straight, you are probably doing all right. That said, your best bet would be to have a trainer check you out, even if it's just for one lesson.

I like working out with kettle bells

I wish I could put this on repeat on a screen at my gym; so much bad form out there (which is probably why I never see the same people doing swings more than once or twice). Thanks for this!

I keep hearing about how beneficial the kettlebell swing is for other applications. If you know of those applications would you please explain how & in what ways this exercise is so beneficial? Thanks.

Hi there - Anything that needs core strength and posterior train strength will be benefited by training the kettlebell swing. So, that's a LOT of activities and movements. It also trains coordination and balance.

Hi Oscar -- It's always best to start lighter and get your form right to begin with. So start as light as 12kg or 16kg and work up from there when you feel confident in your technique.

that swing was so low
