By Jake Lott
The weight, and reps you choose for your training can change depending on whether you are looking to improve hypertrophy, muscular endurance, one rep max, or multiple rep max.  Head coach Ryan Humphries demonstrates the best choice for you based on the guidelines established by the NSCA.  Functional exercises like deadlifts, squats, clean, and jerk translate to effective improvements in  training for life.

Kettlebell Clean Progression

9/4/2018

0 Comments

 
The bummer about the kettlebell clean is bruising your forearm. But this movement is a huge strength builder, and there IS a way to do it without whacking your arm. If you do them swiftly and correctly, the KB should land and rest softly on your forearm, with your wrist straight and tight and your arm folded into your chest.

Check out this quick video where Ryan demos the steps to practice to get it right: Single arm dead lift > pistol pull > dead stop clean.
