    It has nothing to do with size, as a construction worker at 150 pounds, people always act shocked when you can lift more then them...its just conditioning and time put in doing it size and "buff" has nothing to do with it.

    How does a KB swing transfer over to a pull up? Is it the eccentric action of the lats to slow down the KB as it goes away from your body (forward)?

    You don't need to spend months to prove neuro-muscular adaptation - you can prove it in one workout. After you warm up, get in a squat rack and put a _lot_ of weight on the bar. More than you should even try to squat for your first set. Then just lift it off the rests...and wait. Just hold it for a minute. No squatting. Just stand there. It should be enough weight that it will be hard to hold it for too long. Do this twice. Now lower the weight, stretch and do your normal squats. You might be surprised how much stronger you got from three minutes of "lifting". The result is from neurologic adaptation. Please use safeties when you do this. I don't even step out. I just lift the bar 1-2 inches above the rests. That's all it takes. It also works for bench and several other compound movements. I have never had luck using it for isolation movements, but maybe you'll do better. I also pad the bar to prevent my shoulders from feeling sore from the bar.

    Some things I noticed after training consistently with kettlebells, including doing a lot of swings: - My hamstring fatigue during hill sprint sessions was no longer happening. Previously I would start to slow down a little after many sprints. Note that I have always been in shape and always deadlifted. - My burpee conditioning seemed to skyrocket. Suddenly I could do 300 in a session. Note that I have always done burpees. - My deadlift actually increased despite not touching a barbell for a couple of years. - My glutes and hamstrings just feel better. It is hard to explain but they just feel like a spring that is loaded and ready to go at all times, as opposed to the completely destroyed feeling I got from barbell training, which actually took away from my other athletic activities. Note that I do all of the kettlebell hardstyle ballistics (swing, clean, snatch, jerk) and I think it is all of them that contribute, but without doubt in my mind you could only focus on the Swing and get most, if not all of these effects.

  • @moversodyssey

    It's the "what the hell" effect everyone talks about. I think it's a combo of strength-endurance and fascial sling training that's responsible for much of the effect. Swing training really utilizes a chain of multiple muscles, all connected by fascial chains and it engages adaptations in those chains by rhythmically loading them with elasticity. It's really how strength in the body is used in more natural circumstances, like if you had to explosively hoist a heavy bag of seed onto your shoulders. Your observations are very common to hear, and I've experienced the exact same thing. This is how I always know someone is training kettlebells seriously and with good form, they always end up with a story like this.

  • @moversodyssey

    I've never heard of this but if I had to take a guess the first place I would look is neck and head posture. See if maybe you have forward head posture and it's making your tongue sit in a strange position relative to the throat and activating a sensitive gag reflex. Not sure if that is the issue but seems like a logical place to start looking. Best of luck

    @moversodyssey14 сағат бұрын

    I had this problem as well. Part of the issue is it does take time to adapt to nasal breathing if you've been a long time mouth breather. But there can be other reasons. In my case I had a deviated septum and some bad allergies. The allergies got better through and elimination diet (even my seasonal allergies crazy enough) and the deviated septum and fixed right after a broken nose. The nostril collapsed from the break anyway so I stuck the butt end of some tweezers in the nostril and pried it open and it straightened out my septum. Normally a doctor would have to go in and cut out the cartilage thats blocking the nasal passage if thats the case. But either way it's well worth it. I would never want to go back to mouth breathing at this point.

    Your forgetting a MAJOR componet of this philosophy. Fast twich muscle power or utilization of Type A Muscle fibers... This makes ALL the difference in strength gains. Most Division 1 Athletes or gifted Strength sports competitors are born with a higher concentration of these and athletes who train for years on end and get permanent gains have converted a large number of thier fibers into these...

    How reps of these exercises should we perform

  • @moversodyssey
    @moversodyssey14 сағат бұрын

    Depends on your goals, but I good starting place for most people is 30 meters (100ft or so) per set of the carries with 2-3 sets. And 12-15 reps of the windmills per set. This adapts your body to the movement. But after a month or two, if the movement feels natural and solid, you can up the weight and lower the reps to 8. If you eventually decide you want to start training a lot heavier you can switch to the bent press, it's basically a progression of the windmill that is designed for heavy weight and low reps.

    Ironically, I can't do Horse Stance BECAUSE of knee pain and I'm semi-certain a bad horse stance is what gave me knee pain to begin with.

  • @moversodyssey
    @moversodyssey14 сағат бұрын

    One of the problems I've seen with horse stance in the past is the angle of the shin. It's common to have tibial rotation issues already that your unaware of which puts a lot of unnecessary torque on the knee and can lead to injury. In fact, almost everyone I've ever seen in clinic who has had an ACL tear had external tibial rotation. In horse stance, some people will point the shins really far to the outside (external tibial rotation), while the thigh can't properly do the same thing because the adductor muscles are too tight. This can really mess up a knee unfortunately. I'm not sure if this is what happened to you or not but either way it might be worth doing some "banded tibial rotation" rehab exercises. I've seen this resolve a lot of knee pain issues all by itself. Best of luck

    This is another aspect of it. The body has many ways in which it can adapt to exercise, it can alter the muscles, tendons, ligaments or nervous system. The type of exercise your talking about will create adaptations in the tendons and in central nervous system output. Kind of like increasing your internet bandwidth, whereas greasing the groove is better at developing efficiency in the nervous system, almost like getting a faster computer to process everything your doing over the internet. Both create gains in strength and I would recommend both to anyone who wants to increase strength and power relative to size.

    I've been drawing since I was young. Tried to get better as a teenager by getting a few "how to draw" type books, but never found the type of art I liked. With youtube though, there are all kinds of great tutorials. I watched a lot about animation style illustration and comic book illustration. The "Proko" channel has a lot of great content, including some videos of Ryan Benjamin, a really great comic book artist. "Modern Day James" also has a lot of great how to illustrate content centered around animation style art. Other than finding some good resources it just takes practice. I sketched in a sketch book every night for a long time to get practice. Hope that helps, best of luck on your journey

  • @moversodyssey

    I would just go with more of an intuitive approach and see how much your body can handle on top of the boxing. Not sure what equipment you have available to you at home, but if you have TRX bands or gymnastics rings you could do archer rows and do archer push ups on the ground as a second exercise. It's a lot more sports specific to boxing and should add a lot of strength to the shoulder at the end of the jab (the extended arm in the archer position) and in the power hand from the non-extended hand.
