Dan John belongs into the hallmarks of guys like Pavel Tsatsouline, Steve Cotter, Steve Maxwell etc. He definitely served (and still serves) as a catalyst of making the kettlebell more popular.
With his elite-level strength and weightlifting coach background, he also has a strong history of lifting and yet remains humble, understanding and very empathetic in his videos.

Dan is a beast. Look at some of his lifting numbers. He also has a double hip replacement. When he speaks about potential risks, I listen.

Gregory, the “plank” in a HS swing refers to the forward apex of the bell path when the knees are locked, hips are locked, tailbone is tucked under glute tension, core is maximally tensed, and shoulders are packed into the lats. I would say it is the defining characteristic of the HS swing.

@@lebe-stark Happy Trees is correct. The plank occurs at the top of the swing where you draw your kneecaps up, brace abs and tighten glutes.

Jon's point is do the opposite of what will come naturally to most -- relax at the top of the swing. Nope. Dial in your form and tense everything for best results. "Tense everything" == "like plank."

I believe (having watched a few of Dan John's videos) that when he refers to the plank section of the swing, he is referring to the *top* of the swing, not the backswing..Torso is erect, arms outstretched, glutes & knees pulled tight - like you have when you are lying in a plank

@TheJackSP Жыл бұрын

Yes, this is correct. Also know as the “hollow body” position. It’s your push up, your plank, the top of your hard style swing, etc

Great video, great subject. I've really been on a Dan John binge the past two months. He seems like a great guy, and has lots of wisdom to share, even beyond kettlebells. His idea of medium intensity/aerobic work following an intense kettlebell workout (eg the weighted walking after the humane burpee) is really interesting, and I am going to try it out over the next month. The basic idea (although I'm guessing you know it since you follow him!) is that you make every workout last for one hour. You do your KB workout, then for the remainder of the hour you walk/cycle./run etc within the aerobic heartrate limit. So now whenever I finish a Lebe Stark workout, I will go immediately out for a ~20 minute bike ride.

Hi Lebe, really like your channel, thank you for all the great quality videos you put out👍 At around 10:55 Dan is talking about the "plank-hinge". I think you might have it backwards. The plank, as Dan has explained in another video is the position one should be in with legs straight, arms out in front, shoulders tight against the armpits... This is the same position as when you do a plank hold on the floor... But you're standing upright. The hinge would be when you are "hinged" at the waist with the kettlebell between your legs. That's how I thought he was describing it. Great channel, thanks again.

old video but in one part you talk about how he brings the swing up to ab level and you like to bring it up to chest level, but i was thinking like, since he's so tall (like 6'2 or something), his ab level is probably the same height as a lot of people's chest level.

I have a 56KG kettlebell and I’ve worked up to 3 sets of 20. I get a unbelievable glute pump. I’m 210 lb. I don’t DL anymore as I’ve developed osteoarthritis in my subtalar joint in my right foot. I’ve taken a long time to get to this point though. Single arm I use 32kg. Double cleans 24kg. Etc. I think people that stick to this can go a lot heavier

DJ is a legit' legend. He's also open to adopting new theories and techniques unlike some others (who drink a ton of milk..😝). I think it was a DJ presentation that turned me on to the Functional Movement Screen - might have been a collaborative seminar with Gray Cook (my mind's not what it used to be). It was pretty life changing for me, hit me back to normal functioning after 2 disc herniations and subsequent weight gain/inactivity. I also "sold" DJs belief in the the 1/2 TGU as a great prehab/rehab move for throwers - my brother and friends are/were high level Handballers. Have so much time for Dan's teaching, definitely someone I'd like to buy a beer 🍻

The pull of gravity stays the same regardless of how heavy the kettlebell is. But when you lift up 48 kg, above your head, there is stored alot of kinetic energy, in the kettlebell itself, due to the amount of energy it took to elevate it up to such a height. When you then drop down this heavy kettlebell, the acceleration + mass makes it much heavier than 48kg, it's sorta like a multiplier. This phenomena played a smaller role down at 24 kg, but when the weight of the kettlebell is increased the numbers quickly spiral out of control. And that's why going past 24kg really starts demanding crazy technique. I'm not even using 24 kg yet!! 😂 I'm actually two- handed swinging 12kg 😹 still trying to get the hip-hinge coordinated correctly, it's very difficult, my form is so bad that even 12kg will make my lower back sore, after just 10 swings..! 🤕 I'm a small 60kg dude who just started training, and wanna bulk up 😂

@brianpotter3804 6 ай бұрын

The acceleration of gravity stays the same. The force generated by the is the acceleration of gravity X the mass. That is what he is talking about.

@stevenmishos 3 жыл бұрын

Force = mass x acceleration (above a certain weight, people's ability to accelerate the load will diminish, therefore force production actually drops - 30% bodyweight for most people, IIRC)

@Emorysr 3 жыл бұрын

Gregory I agree with you here and I appreciate the common sense approach. I'm an engineer and the physics of it all is about momentum and work. Momentum increases with heavier weight, and the force it generates that your body counter acts, is called Work. The work the kettlebell produces can never be more than the amount of force and friction at the only place your body is connected to the earth. (Your feet.) If it is..something has to give either your feet slip or your body breaks. BUT... you can achieve the SAME amount of WORK with a reasonable weight and more volume. (Much safer, no injuries) Reasonable weight, perfect technique, and just the right volume, is the time proven formula for success. Really appreciate the video. (Love practicing my Duetch on your channel)

I've done 150lb hard-style swings as part of a workout, but it's for much lower reps, and done specifically for strength and power. But I'm doing it as an accessory movement for strongman competition. I wouldn't recommend that for the average gym goer.

@gerpolcolsen749 3 жыл бұрын

Just an opinion of me. If I want to take the 32kg kettlebell for training. It takes a lot less space at home then a barbell. Then it makes sense to buy the 32kg or am I wrong? I know, a must be perfect. I just got a 18kg kettlebell and I'm looking for another 18kg for doubles. These 2 kettlebells would take a lot less space then barbell and weights. And I find It way much more appealing to do a swing with +30kg kettlebell then bench press 100kg. The 18kg is killing me and the bench press is somewhat easy

I don’t see a reason for me to swing above the 32kg. Overall, I think the 24kg probably feels the best to swing, but I do like going heavier sometimes, especially now that I feel like I’m really “owning” the 24kg (like Pavel talks about in S&S).

I swing heavy bells. I agree with what you are saying but gravity does not increase with heavier kettlebells, the force of gravity, (mass times the acceleration of gravity) increases. Gravity (g) is always 9.8 m/s^2. What is happening is the heavier the bell, the more momentum, and potential/kinetic energy it'll have. We can talk physics all day long, but it boils down to the heavier the bell, the more potential for something to go horribly wrong.
