Kettlebell Swing

The kettlebell swing is a dynamic exercise that primarily targets the muscles of the hips, back, and core. Using a kettlebell—a weighted ball with a handle—individuals swing the weight between their legs and then propel it forward to shoulder height using a powerful hip thrust. This movement enhances strength, endurance, and cardiovascular fitness. It also promotes good posture and coordination. The kettlebell swing is often favored for its efficiency, engaging multiple muscle groups while providing a full-body workout in a short amount of time. Proper form is crucial to avoid injury and maximize benefits.
