The Kettlebells Workout

Kettlebell Swings: Flex your hips as if you are sitting back onto a chair and rapidly extend the hips as you lift the arms to shoulder level. Make sure that you use a weight that you can control. The movement should be performed rapidly but in control. Do not use your arms to lift the KB as all the power should come from your hip explosion. (Andrew Meade Photography)

Side squats: Do one lunge to the side and sit back. Try to touch the floor with the KB while keeping the back straight. Go as low as your back and hips mobility allow. (Andrew Meade Photography)

Squat to low high wood chop: This move should be performed rapidly but in control. The force should come from the hips with the side of the abdominals controlling the move when the arms are extended to the side. (Andrew Meade Photography)

Deadlift reaches with KB: From a sitting position lift up your body and then perform one DL to one side, lift up your body and perform another DL to the other side, go back to starting position. (Andrew Meade Photography)
