Kettlebell Leg Training

[mrhuge815]

and pop goes the patella..

[IKFFChannel]

@mrhuge815 not a forgone conclusion. I can imagine many people would pop their knees doing this. The person in the video is not one of them. If you fear the exercise you can learn how to do it. With ability comes understanding

[Deadsicle]

I like that he's wearing 3 different brands of clothing. He didn't want to make any of them jealous.

[stratocaster1986able]

Steve must eat nuts morning, noon and night. Because he is what he eats.

[stratocaster1986able]

This is nuts.

[danopinzaro]

bullshit..this exercise is not bad for the knees, hes doing this since many years and nothing is wrong with his knees, look how easily he is able to perform the squats

[RAWPOWAH]

lol so funny 0:50 when he says "clean the pistols"

[brainleftme]

fall over

[egl310]

hey men how can you do that with one single leg, i cant even get back up even with both legs they are too weak i cannot keep my back straight or else i cnt get up my legs are so skinny that i never ever wear shorts how can i get strength on my legs and gain a some muscle well not exactly muscle just so they wnt be so skinny

[zem4]

this exercise is very bad for the knees

[IKFFChannel]

@zem4 No you are mistaken, it is very good for the knees--IF done correctly. If you don't have the flexibility, balance, control or strength, then you are right, it is bad for your knees--to each their own.

[lonerangersheriff]

@zem4 Well I agree with you, even though I really respect this dude. He is physically gifted and is no doubt making a bundle of cash from his training techniques. I say to the whole whirl, just learn the basics-maybe put a little personal snazz into the basics after a while and train with common sense and moderation. Word to our mothers.

awesime

[burtrumbean]

does anybody find its easier to do these barefoot?

[AmusingYeti]

@burtrumbean I actually tried it barefoot before and it was slightly easier. I guess it depends on what footwear you are wearing.

[richp860]

@burtrumbean Everything should be easier barefoot. Any shoe too thick and doesn't allow natural motion is bad for your feet and body in general. It jams up joints, threatens the nervous system and disrupts progress. Get a pair of Nike Free's.

holy hell

that is awesome

[duelsword]

his legs very strong :|

[vjmagick]

this guy is an animal

[Rasengon07]

THANKS FOR MAKING THIS AWESOME VIDEO.

[majbritt1]

This will mess up your knee if done wrong! You should stress the point in not to not relax and refire the muscles at the bottom of the exentric part. But it is a great exercise if done corresct for sure.

[JacktheDaniels]

Why do so many people think that so many thing are bad for your knees...?

Just wondering where this comes from.

[aherrns]

@JacktheDaniels Seems that knees are the most prone to be hurt in excercises, games, etc.

[destructo1080]

strong guy this excersise might be a little hard on the knees tho

[salahaddin2009]

this guy kicks major ass...

[josephstache]

I can do a fair amount of One-legged Squats but I never thought about trying it with the imbalance of a Kettlebell (just recently got a few of my own) and I have to say that is damn impressive how you bust those out.

I know what I'm going to be focusing on for a while.

[arontao]

How he can do those squats O=O i cant even reach half of the way he do it

[frillylizzard]

as long as you use the proper technique they are fine for your knees.

My knees have been great since learning them.

[Dorni2405]

if this is really good for the knees???????

[702decatur]

Its horrible for the knees but this guy is a freak.

[frillylizzard]

i can do pistols but no way could i squat 400pounds. its all relative i guess. anyways Steve is a monster.

[panther87prez]

I wish he was doing that naked!!!

[MONEYStheMOTIVE]

thats insane i bet anybody that can even squat 400+ couldnt do 10 of those one legged squats with no weight

[morechicharonesforme]

I can do one.

[onepluseipi]

@MONEYStheMOTIVE Very true, there is much more in the pistols than just strength.

[sidhyarth]

doing even a half squat with that makes you feel stronger but the other half is the toughest ...practice practice practice :)

[eltorpedo17]

i do that

[jonandpeg]

that is impressive - been trying to do 1 without weights for months very hard 2 do - will keep trying

[badgerox]

a cool thing i got told was when ever you get up from a chair do it with one leg your basically practiceing throughout the day

[sempercase]

because of steve I work on pistols like it's my job. Impressive as hell

[luroh]

haha same. i think steve is creating a generation of pistol junkies :D

[hogepriestertoet]

That's almost impossible to do. :(

[klined]

practice practice practice!

[Bigturns33]

You will be suprised when practicing how strong your legs will get.

[cdkanas]

oh thats just insane. great job though. bet only 1 out of 10,000 people can do that.

[livevintageously]

Crazy! Seriously, this is my goal someday!

[newwrestler140]

steves a fukin mutant
