| | | VIDEO TECHNIQUE TIP
“Wrist to the Hips” is a great visualization tip by Master StrongFirst Certified Instructor, Pavel Macek, for improving your kettlebell swing and snatch. Taking a swing for example, notice when your wrists align with your hips—for most people it’s when the upper arms reconnect with the torso. Barring extremely long or short arms, we want to keep the wrists there when we hinge to maintain the integrity of the “deadlift” position with shoulders above hips, hips above knees. Maintaining this position when we hinge helps to avoid two common issues that rob you of your hip power. Click the photo to view in Instagram (you do not need an account).

| | | | Get Started: Foundational Principles of Results-driven Kettlebell Training
by Brett Jones
There’s a lot more to getting stronger than the actions of simply, and progressively, lifting more. Much of it has to do with caring about setting a proper foundation of solid skills and a successful approach that guides training decisions. For kettlebell beginners particularly, that means starting out by knowing and addressing limitations that could point you in an ineffective direction, and considering the mindset factors that contribute to strength: quality, lifestyle, your why, and pursuing mastery.
