This weeks class looked at the Kettlebell Swing. We started with the Russian Swing where the Kettlebell is swung to Shoulder height, then the Power Swing where the Kettlebell is pushed back down from Shoulder height, this generates a lot more energy in the swing, which means quicker swings and thus more Power!
Then it was onto the CrossFit favourite, the American Swing. In this swing the Kettlebell is swung to a vertical position above the Head. It is important in this swing to increase the Hip extension and get the "pop at the top" to get the Kettlebell to the correct position!
