The Kettlebell Metronome is a staple at our Level 2 Kettlebell Instructor Certifications.

Senior Agatsu Kettlebell Instructor Tyson LaRone dropped this at a Level 2 KB Cert back in 2011 and we have been doing it ever since.

Give it a try and let us know what you think. Is it a head breaker or a heartbreaker.

If your kettlebell press feels weak, the problem probably isn’t your shoulder.
It’s a lack of tension.

Here are two simple fixes:

1️⃣ Crush your free hand.
Squeezing your non-pressing fist creates an irradiated effect, helping your entire body generate more tension.

2️⃣ Pack your shoulder.
Depress and externally rotate your shoulder to engage your lat. A tight lat gives you a stronger, more stable foundation for the press.

The press isn’t just an arm exercise.
It’s a full-body skill.

Share this with someone who’s working on their kettlebell press.

Most people think the goblet squat starts when they squat.

It starts before that.

If you can’t safely and confidently get the kettlebell into position, you’re already creating problems before the first rep.

A simple swing can help guide the bell into position.

Palm it like you’re holding a pizza.

Bring your other hand to the ball of the kettlebell.

Then pull your elbows in tight.

That gives you more control, a more stable goblet position, and less chance of the kettlebell slipping while you squat.

One more thing:

Don’t turn this setup into a thruster.

Sweaty hands and a loose kettlebell are a bad combination.

Control the setup first.

Then train it.

Most people ruin their one arm kettlebell swing with their free hand.

They either freeze it…
or start touching their leg.

Both kill your timing.

Your free hand should move with the bell.
Same rhythm. Same direction.

When it doesn’t, everything falls apart:
– alignment
– power
– control

Fix this, and your swing immediately feels cleaner and lighter.

Simple correction. Big difference.

If you train with kettlebells, watch this twice.
If you train with someone else, send this to them.
