With the exception of the Quarter Get Up, and as demonstrated in the videos, always extend the arms so as to never align the kettlebell with the torso. In other words, get that kettlebell working against you, and not for you. That's the whole purpose of the kettlebell and why it's so effective...RESISTANCE. Most importantly, these exercises [as with all resistance training] are pointless, and can be harmful if you don't have proper form and technique. There's nothing wrong with starting off with light weight, and as long as you develop the proper form and technique, you'll remain safe and even move up in weight in no time. This is such an excellent video! New Subscriber here Bro!!

@barbarafairbanks4578 5 ай бұрын

@TheWayOfTheJragon Yah, thanks for the reminder to start out lite and focus on proper form. Something that was basically omitted (not verbalized) in the demo... These look excellent- 1st glance - but how many are just gonna go ALL OUT with a heavier load than they should, and end up with an injury 😮 I'll ask you, since it seems you might know. I have no KB's, but do have a nice set of bowflex SelecTech dumbbells. Would you yay, or nay my doing these with this type dumbbell? (plenty substantial grip bar to hold on to, but of course, weighted plates @ each end.

@TheWayOfTheJragon 5 ай бұрын

@@barbarafairbanks4578 You're absolutely welcome and definitely right. And don't forget to stretch before any workout session as well. The combination of not stretching and proper form can be dangerous and lead to injury. I'm sure the Coach has videos on that, hopefully. As for the Bowflex SelecTech Dumbbells, they should allow you to perform the same type of exercises in the video. As long as your weight sets have handles to simply hold on to, as-well-as lift, you are GOOD to GO. In all honesty, the ONLY difference between Kettlebells and Dumbbells would be the position of the handles. That's pretty much it. One advantage of having the Bowflex SelecTech Dumbbells is the ability to lighten the weight and start off light if needed, and safely, whereas Kettlebells, you're stuck with whatever weight you buy. By that, I mean that if you buy 20lbs, you get only 20lbs and then you'd have to buy 10lbs, or 30lbs, etc...separately. The other advantage of dumbbells is if you were to perform exercises like the Quarter Get Up. The Kettlebell would have to rest on your arm's radial side which can do harm unless your forearm and wrist are already primed for such exercise. I truly love the Kettlebell, but I also love Dumbbells. Although, each have their advantages/ disadvantages, you really can't go wrong with any of them. Just remember to take into consideration, your limits on the positioning of Kettlebells on your arm. Hope this helps!

@@TheWayOfTheJragon Stretch prior? I know that warming up prior to exercise is essential. Stretching s/b done afterwards when the muscles are warmed up (What I do, when lifting, is perform a couple of sets with light weights prior to a full session with the heavy weightload I intend to use in my session. Pretty sure that stretching should come after an exercise session, never before. This is because muscles should not be stretched unless they are warmed up first - pretty sure that's the reason. Perhaps you meant to say to warm up prior, then stretch afterwards. (?)

@TheWayOfTheJragon 5 ай бұрын

@@barbarafairbanks4578 I actually meant prior, but that's because I've grown accustomed to the traditional ways. Basketball, Football and Martial Arts. In Basketball, I had to stretch before I did legs, jump sets and lunges and upper body. Lightweight of course. In Football, I stretched before I did weights for legs, arms and tackle drills. Wait, however, in Martial Arts, we'd stretch before and after sessions and tournaments. I'm just used to stretching before any tense muscle exhausting activity. I was trained that by stretching, you're already warming up the muscles while priming them for the workout, keeping them loose because, by the end of the workout, your muscles will have gotten tighter which is the result you want, unless you're aim is to be flexible, so I guess I did both. If you only stretched post-workout, I can see the benefit as well. I guess it all boils down to the function/ goals of your workout. As I am in my 30's now, I shifted my focus on simple, and functional workouts, for example, a Football player isn't going to train on kicks, punches, blocks, waxing on and off and so on. My functional goals now is to be in the best Dad-bod shape and be fit enough to protect my Littles if needed. Thankfully, there's Kettlebells, Dumbbells and Ellipticals. LOL. Not a lot of people know this but generally, the Human Head is, on an average, around 16lbs and all I need is to train and maintain my 230lb knock out power. I don't need to put on more muscle weight either because that would slow me down if I have to chase the Littles across Disney World, or even at the park. LOL.

@barbarafairbanks4578 5 ай бұрын

@TheWayOfTheJragon Dynamic stretching is what I now believe you meant. ...and yah, that's prior to a session, to help warm up the muscles before the serious work begins. Whereas, static stretching is done afterward, when the muscles are warmed up. I hear 'stretch' and I think 'static stretching'. For whatever reason - idk 🤷‍♂️(?)...I just think of dynamic stretching as a warm up. But we're both talking about the same thing. Good luck to you, keeping up 🤸 with your kiddos😁 Shouldn't be too much of a challenge at your age👍
