The One-Arm Swing is indeed an incredible exercise. Make sure you master the Two-Arm Swing exercise first! Hardstyle Kettlebell Training Program: hardstylekettlebellpro.com/
Any suggestions as to how to progress from the two-hand to the one-hand? Especially as regards the weight? I feel as though I do ok with the two hands, but with one hand even the 16kg bell seems unwieldy.
Hi Louka, I used to grip the KB horizontally and rotate my hand inward on the bottom of the hinge so the handle does not strike my inner thigh, but now it seems to make more sense if I actually keep the grip vertical the whole time, as I think this ought to engage the lat more and create better upper body stability to absorb the downswing, but I see noone else doing that. I‘d appreciate your opinion on that!
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro Thanks coach Louka I would love to get them when available. Ive been following you know for 2 month and found out about you by watching Lebe Stark. I started kettlebell Training from a video by a Michael Skogg. I really like all the things ive learned from you through your channel and have started the 5 best kettlebell exercises for beginners.
It's interesting...he obviously has great form & I believe he's an expert, but he seems to be bending his knees way more than I learned how to perform swings. I know that some folks do a knee bend swing, & I'll often see other experts advising that it's the most common mistake people make while attempting swings. He does appear to still have a great hip hinge, so I suppose it's just a variation on the more standard swing?
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro I figure long as you do it properly and engage your core there's a slight chance you'll get injured. but the shoulders are less stable and more prone to damage, especially during sudden movements. Swinging the kettlebell with one arm instead of two puts extra stress on the shoulder and also attempts to pull the body into rotation.
