TECHNIQUE: Start with feet hip width apart, weight in the heels and mid foot, shoulders back and core engaged. As you perform the kettle bell swing re grip the kettlebell by the horns and perform a partial squat. Straighten your legs, re grip the kettlebell and swing back into the hips. ADVANTAGES: This movement challenges the core, grip and shoulders under alternating positions with the kettlebell. The exercise provides a challenging progression to the Russian Kettlebell Swing. FAULTS: Common faults include chest falling, legs shooting forward, and losing arch support in the feet. SCALING: Movement can be progressed by adding a lateral side step. The exercise can be regressed by removing the squat which removes some of the complexity of the movement.
