STOP SQUATTING YOUR SWINGS. ❌ The kettlebell swing is one of the most beneficial exercises you can learn — but a lot of people still turn it into a squat + arm raise. The swing is a HIP HINGE. Think of the athletic position you use before a jump — load the hips, hamstrings and glutes, then SNAP the hips forward. Your arms are NOT there to muscle the kettlebell up. Think of your arms as hooks. The hips create the power. The bell follows. And don’t hinge too early on the way back. Let the bell come back toward you, then hinge with it — you and the bell move together. At the top: Stand tall. Brace. Squeeze the glutes. Let that explosive hip drive accelerate the bell. DON’T SQUAT IT. DON’T LIFT IT WITH YOUR ARMS. HINGE • SNAP • LET THE BELL FLY. 🔥 Save this and practice your swing. #kettelbellworkout #workout #kettelbell #hometraining #functionaltraining
