Mesut Ozil especially the typical handmovements ;) when he explains things.

Salim -> Slim... Noice. :D

Same here ;)

All that equipment was here, it just gets moved around a lot. Give me ideas and I’ll give you videos

@@MarkWildman It seemed to me that in your earlier videos that the floor space and stairs were a a little more open. I'd like to see a KB routine video. Thanks for all you do!

@@MarkWildman I love your videos. If you had a paid workout program I'd buy it. I'm a noob and don't know where to start. I'll try to put together a Playlist of your videos for myself, kettlebell and clubs.

@@MarkWildman Hi Mark, what I need as a beginner is some guidance. Getting off my ass and into working out is hard, and I can't spare the brainpower needed to puzzle everything together because I need that brainpower to actually do the movements and then get through the rest of the day :-) So what would really help are some "Phase one" full body workouts for beginners, including a warmup and cooling down. Get us going for three months, and then we can step it up a notch into Phase two. Or do another Phase one programme to, for instance, get the basics of clubs. So an idea would be: Phase One KB, Phase One Clubs - 3 month daily workout. After our initial succes and staying injury free with your guidance we could then start to commit to longer programmes. Just an idea.

Thanks

One direction always sucks. Work until they are balanced

I love Bavaria! I was there on a movie last year!

look for around the world front to back and around the world back to front

Just get good with the light weights... you are doing it just fine. More time with light weights and experimentation is better

@Faith...sometimes it's 2, so there are least 2 old girlfriends out there :)

John J lol

It’s people who don’t agree with my philosophy of training.... usually barbell guys and bodybuilders

@@MarkWildman Where did you get that fancy haircut? I thought the barbershops were all closed! Great channel, good luck!

yes

Ok, thanks

Everything I do? Please be more specific. Why that area? So I can formulate a good tesponse

@@MarkWildman I guess specifically it would be the thoraco-lumbar area. If anything on my back ever gets sore it's that area for some reason. You mentioned you've had 3 knee operations, care to explain why you needed these knee operations, just curious as to what caused it. Thanks. Oh and I don't do situps. All I've been doing for the last 6 months is KB swings, dips and farmers carry. But this problem has been with me for a number of years. Some days after doing the swings my back feels great, but then I'll be standing at the kitchen sink doing whatever for 20 mins or so and my middle back will get sore, strange.

Solid plan

Only the basics.... I teach only the basics of lots of stuff. There are many much better advanced teachers than me. But I do the basics great

Keith Cantwell ya got that right mate. I just bought a 44kg bell and I can’t even imagine doing this with it.

@@tezzanewton that's 10 pounds heavier tho....and this guy is probably 20 pounds heavier than you

And hes going close to failure on that exercise for a warm up?

Alexxx Ender yeah, once I do these, halos and TGU for a warmup, I’m done. Ready for my pajamas and slippers. Hahaha 😂

Terry Newton same mate . I wouldn’t even attempt it with steel toe cap boots on never mind bare footed

Me. :)

That would depend on the Weight. If it’s very heavy I guess it might. I’ve had Manet model and actresses use this in their training

@@MarkWildman thank you for your reply !

No clue without seeing. Probably a few months of good technique. You should probably be training barefoot and using toe stretcher/separators. You should also be doing Pilates hip bridges at the beginning of every work. 120 sec on the clock.

@@MarkWildman thanks for the reply, appreciate it. I’ve seen a few of these ads for toe stretchers, never tried them. Do you know of any that are any good, or will more or less anything separating your big toe do?

The silicon ones on Amazon I like. They hold all the toes open. Bunions are annoying to deal with but they can be helped most likely. And point your feet straight ahead in the bridges. Roll the arches of your feet for 120 sec each side as well before and after training. 2.5 inch spikes Physio ball on amazon

@@MarkWildman thanks again for the reply. KB’s ordered and in their way. As well as the toe separators. One more question. I also have apt, should I refrain from or focus on something specific with that in mind? Or will the previous tips you gave and lots and lots of kb swings sort me out?

Did I not make that video yet?

@@MarkWildman I don't remember that one, only a video about alternating halo. might just have missed it

Hey Edward, I'm 62 and love working with kettlebells. Not sure what Mark would recommend as the knowledgeable, professional trainer - and would love his opinion on this issue. What I'm doing with heavier weights with snatches and swings for instance is an interval approach with high intensity for 10-15 seconds and low intensity or rest for 50-45 seconds. This approach seems to allow my body enough rest between active phases that my muscles are able to regenerate much more easily. If I do high intensity with less rest between active phases, more along a typical tabata cycle typically called high intensity interval training, then it takes me a number of days to recover. I picked this tip up from Pavel during a Joe Rogen podcast. He calls this high intensity with longer low intensity intervals approach "High-Intensity Repeat Training" or HIRT and recommends it for older folks doing kettlebells. Another way of saying it is if I exercise at too high an intensity with too little rest between sets, then it seems my muscle fibers get broken down too much for my body's capacity to repair and rebuild them, and I'm just sore and stiff for a few days and I don't seem to get stronger with time. If instead I give my body a strong challenge but for only short high intensity phases, then I feel great after the workout and feel stronger the next day, which is what I want. This is what I've found that works well for me so far, in the absence of a professional trainer like Mark providing more detailed / personalized guidence.

Edward Vega, I’m a 77 year old female. Have been working out with kettlebells for 14 years now, and am just working my way up the kettlebell weights. Currently in lockdown I’m swinging my 16kg aiming for 100 swings per time, and also have a 10kg which I also swing up to 100 times. Am able to do rack and press, goblet squats and sumo and RDL. The weight is not the issue when one begins, rather the form. Most important otherwise one can injure oneself. I prefer to work with my trainer, however in his absence I do what I can. Watch Mark’s other videos, they are excellent.

@@juliehock6059 You must be happy with the your results. It just takes 1 kettle step at a time. Thank you for responding, be safe and well and keep letting.

@@nandobreiter4075 Thanks for the tips, the soreness does come more with age. I do enjoy learning from a well informed instructor. Well stay well and safe. Thanks again

grab a chunk of grass outside. on soft ground it won't roll if you loose it

@@MarkWildman Okay thanks. That works 250 days in Colorado. 😬 PS: Of course I have about 125 left to worry about that.

because my legs are blazingly white
