Technique

  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a Kettlebell in one hand at arm's length.
  2. Hinge at the hips with slightly bent knees and let the kettlebell swing back between your legs.
  3. Snap your hips forward to swing it up to chest height.
  4. At the top, switch hands and keep swinging, alternating hands each rep.

Form tips

  1. The power comes from the hips; the arms just guide the bell.
  2. Keep your back neutral throughout.

Risks

  1. Practice the hand switch with a light kettlebell first.
