Hi nice video just started using the kettlebell in the gym after a friend kept on at me to try them

One question are we best to it 5 reps each step until your body is able to handle doing it in one go? or best to stick to the 5 steps the whole time?. Also video is very informative and could easily see how this could end in a injury

Thanks

I can see how easy it would be to do wrong and risk injury, so thanks for the video dude!

@irematproductions your welcome

This is the best video I could find on the exercise. Good work.

What would make it better would be reversing the angle. I and others find that if we could get a first-person view, we can visualize better. Almost all instructional videos fail from this perspective, no pun intended.

probably the best demo on here. Bravo.

Extremely helpful. I'm working through the Enter the Kettlebell program minimum and had a good suspicion that I was doing these all wrong. I'm just starting out and, although I do swings with a 35 lb kettlebell, I found that it's too much for the get up for me at this point. Even with a lighter bell, it's still a struggle.

Is it okay to just practice part of this routine each day and work up to the full routine?

Thanks again. Excellent work!

Like the way you've broken it up into 5 movements, makes it much easier, also makes a nice 5x5 workout!

The one I looked had you starting out on your elbow. This is much more intense and I like the little crunch thing in the middle. BTW I struggled with the other one so this one will probably kill me.

yeah no kidding. I tried 45lbs for the first time last saturday and My entire body was a quivering mess.
