Hi Louka, I used to grip the KB horizontally and rotate my hand inward on the bottom of the hinge so the handle does not strike my inner thigh, but now it seems to make more sense if I actually keep the grip vertical the whole time, as I think this ought to engage the lat more and create better upper body stability to absorb the downswing, but I see noone else doing that. I‘d appreciate your opinion on that!
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro Thanks coach Louka I would love to get them when available. Ive been following you know for 2 month and found out about you by watching Lebe Stark. I started kettlebell Training from a video by a Michael Skogg. I really like all the things ive learned from you through your channel and have started the 5 best kettlebell exercises for beginners.
It's interesting...he obviously has great form & I believe he's an expert, but he seems to be bending his knees way more than I learned how to perform swings. I know that some folks do a knee bend swing, & I'll often see other experts advising that it's the most common mistake people make while attempting swings. He does appear to still have a great hip hinge, so I suppose it's just a variation on the more standard swing?
Any suggestions as to how to progress from the two-hand to the one-hand? Especially as regards the weight? I feel as though I do ok with the two hands, but with one hand even the 16kg bell seems unwieldy.
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro I figure long as you do it properly and engage your core there's a slight chance you'll get injured. but the shoulders are less stable and more prone to damage, especially during sudden movements. Swinging the kettlebell with one arm instead of two puts extra stress on the shoulder and also attempts to pull the body into rotation.
This was the video that helped really dial in my technique! Simple and straight to the point. Thank you!
this is probably one of the best tutorials out there for SA swings. he mentions relatively overlooked details that are super duper important
Awesome tutorial, improved my swing and I feel it so differently.
Love this, I was struggling and this will help!
Thank you for the video! I was so close to giving up on the one arm swing!
thanks for sharing so freely.
Great demonstration. Great video. Thank you my friend.
Useful information. Thank you.
I like your way of explaining it. Thanks.
That is one helluva swing coach
Great instructions as always, thanks👍🏻
Super helpful! Thanks!
Great video, Louka! Lovely breakdown of the movement.
Great tutorial! Thank you
Awesome!!
Had a nasty shoulder impingement from single kettlebell swings that lasted 6 months till I had my range of motion back to normal
Thank you!
Plank! Chop! Touch!

Both are acceptable ways to OASW
Is there any tutorial for one leg-one arm kettlebell swing?
Coach Louka, how can I get my hands on the hardstyle KB posters on the displayed on your gym wall.?
Hey Trent, thanks for the interest. I'll have them available this year for purchase. Stay tuned!

Outstanding!
Merci 👍
Bienvenue!
Is the technique the same for the big volume of reps workouts? Say 500 kbs...I do that once a week and the rest is most focused on hard style
ALL HARDSTYLE :)

This is the standard Swing, but it appears different due to my body structure
Any suggestions as to how to progress from the two-hand to the one-hand? Especially as regards the weight? I feel as though I do ok with the two hands, but with one hand even the 16kg bell seems unwieldy.
is it safe to do this with a 40lb kettlebell or is that too heavy?
Depends one you...

100%. In the One-Arm Swing , the LATS stabilize the shoulder, the abs and glutes stabilize the back, hence it's harder

감사합니다^_^
Por favor, títulos en español !!
Bad form.
I'm so grateful for your technical advice. Lol
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro do you only reply to the criticiser
The video for the 2H swing is really old and there is no hike pass in the beginning, is there a more updated version?
Add the hike pass 😉
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro thanks coach
