Kettlebell Swing

Lacee noted that you should be choosing the heaviest kettlebell weight possible while maintaining proper form.

  • Stand with your feet wider than hips-width apart, toes slightly pointing out. Squat down, and hold a kettlebell with both hands between your legs. Make sure your back is flat and your abs are engaged.
  • As you inhale, press into your feet and explode up, straightening your legs and swinging the kettlebell in front so your hands are in line with your shoulders. For a more advance version, swing the kettlebell up overhead.
  • Exhale, and with control, come back to the starting position, allowing the kettlebell to swing back between your legs.
  • This counts as one rep.
  • Want a challenge? Lacee suggested doing these for 10 minutes total. On the minute mark, do 10 to 15 swings and use the remaining time to rest.
