the kettlebell swing
Charity (35p), Jane (35p) and Kim (25p) all have very decent kettlebell swings but each of them could make improvements. Charity should further engage the hips and hamstrings simply by bending her knees a bit more and pushing her hips back. Jane hinges too much at the hips and hence her chest comes too far forward. Kim, on the other hand, doesn't hinge enough and she is too vertical.
These are small things that when corrected will make their kettlebell swing much more efficient.

goddamn. charity's swings are damn near perfect (actually, they look perfect to me, but if you say so, darci...)...she needs a new title Dr. Charity Marsh, K.S.Q.
ReplyDeleteI like that Beth...maybe we should create titles for everyone's fav. exercise. I do love the kb swings.
ReplyDeleteThe little things Darci pointed out are really a result of my ankle injury (and not being able to squat just a wee bit more. It's getting better everyday.
