I'm 59 and taught myself the TGU about a year ago, one of the best exercises I've ever done and now a regular in my routine. I use a 24kg KB (@72kg bodyweight).
Still watching you years later. Still learning. Still always trying to focus and better my technique. Thanks for everything Gregory! My fitness journey would not be near what it is without you! You provide an invaluable service and I truly thank you for it! Your changing lives buddy keep it up!
Yesterday, I watched the video of the The 8-Second Expert | w/ Dan John podcast you did two years ago. I jotted down down Dan's 6-second expert advice: sleep, drink water, vegi and protein every meal---Then the movement/exercise types: push/pull, hinge squat, loaded carry, and walk. All I'm missing are the kettle bell exercises, I think. "If I could just identify some kettlebell exercises that meet that expert advice. And behold, coach, you provided exactly what I need.
Recently subscribed, love your content, kettlebells are amazing!!!! i started couple years back with 1x16, now i am able to do 2x24kg slowly. the 2 next exercises you are motivating me to include are: bent press & turkish get-up. thanks from Spain.
Good stuff man, good stuff. I'm a cheap ass so got some ankle weights to up my current KB weights for those farmers walks and lunges. Cheap way to up the KG instead of buying a another KB to get a extra 5KG on those days you got nothing but energy to burn.
Veery cool video!😊 i love particularly the bent press: it belongs to a whole familiy of exercises: side press, windmill, 2 hands anyhow: connecting to the old-tmie strongmen. You need flexibility. I had a coach from Volzhky, Volgograd. He wanted to prepare me for the Master of Sports, back in 2015. I hurt my shoulder and that was it. Now I am regaining my Girevik skills and happy I found this channel... Grüße nach CH😊
Brother, I dont think Ive seen many TGU's starting with a curtsy lunge if starting from the top position (I thought it would be a bit unstable?), what was your reasoning for using the curtsy lounge rather than a reverse lunge? Thanks for all your awesome videos! Im glad you incorporate these in your workouts in the members section, oh yeah! 🙂
Re: double snatch drop to rack That makes perfect sense--thanks. Been trying the swing version with 2 x 12's and it's been bearable, but with 16's... I felt like a lower back version of the Alien movie when it pops out at the dinner scene... Sheez.
Gregory, great KB video, as always! I notice that you don't seem to include KB halos in your exercise videos, do you not rate these as a useful exercise? Thanks for your advice!
Hi Gregory! Thanks for posting this compilation packed with important details! I'm curious: would you lock your knees at the top of the goblet squat or just keep them soft? Dan John talks about it in one of his last books and some practitioners tend to plank every extension like a deadlift or swing. But is it applicable to the goblet squat? Thanks!
Question about the H2H swing. I see you like to swing with the handle oriented horizontally. I’ve been doing the swing with the handle oriented vertically. Is the orientation a big deal or just personal preference? Thanks in advance.
I’ve been contemplating trying the get up however my knees aren’t very tight so doing a lunge to get down is going to be my challenge there. Perhaps I’ll start playing with it on my non workout days.
Try it unloaded first and see how your knee reacts. Some of our clients' knees are not suitable for a Get-Up so don't worry; there's other exercises to benefit you as well.

Awesome!
H2H is my absolute fave it let’s me push really deep into longer sets without my grip bottlenecking like 2H swings do. Glad it made the list.

I appreciate your instruction. Kettlebell training is a lot more enjoyable using good technique and not hurting myself!
Beautifully explained - cleared some doubts I didn't even know I had! Thanks 🤘🏻
Great stuff as usual Gregory
Thank you very much! Very complete, and clear explanations and indications
Great video. So many exercises to try to do!
Started to do kettlebells a month ago and love it.
Your channel is useful.
Appreciate the feedback!

Wonderful quality kettlebells. Wider handles than the ones I'm used to, but that's not a bad thing.
Awesome video Gregory!! 🔥🔥🔥
Good job 💪

Your setup for the kneeling windmill is quicker and you don‘t scrape your knees on the floor.
It‘s less stable yes; so be careful. 💪

LOOOOL
Gregory, great KB video, as always! I notice that you don't seem to include KB halos in your exercise videos, do you not rate these as a useful exercise? Thanks for your advice!
Personally, I never do them. I've gained awesome shoulder mobility from lots of pressing.

I always lock the joints at the top of every kettlebell lift.
@@lebe-stark thank you Gregory! ☆
What type of kettlebell are you using? Right now I only have one solid black bell but looking to invest in more

What would you say is the main difference between Bent press and the windmill?????
Greetings!!
Windmill is static; Bent Press is dynamic (at least for the upper body)
What shoes are those coach?
Our own brand; coming soon
Do u still recommend TGU right now coach?

There are no "best" exercises that begin with a kettle ball.
Of course there are.
@@lebe-stark kettle ball? What's that?
