Teaching the Kettlebell Swing
To perform the drill, take a long PVC pipe and find two beams which you can put the pipe behind:
- back is facing the PVC pipe
- hip hinge
- grab the pipe with arms through the legs
- correct posture
- walk forward as far as possible while remaining in position
You can ask the athlete to release and come into full extension while you hold the pipe in place. Imagine the bell dropping, remain in extension, wait, wait, hip hinge, insert, grab the pipe and remain in position for a few seconds. This drill will help you teach a proper kettlebell swing with a hip hinge.
Don’t forget, there is also the squat swing and stiff legged kettlebell swing.
