What in the heck is ‘kettlebell flow’?

Well, first, take a look at this ‘body weight flow’ video to get an idea of what I’m talking about:

Pretty cool, huh?

Each movement ‘flows’ together, you keep your heart rate up, and get a great workout – it’s awesome. And you look like a kettlebell master :)

So what’s the secret?

It’s practicing the basic movements and getting them down cold. No ’secret sauce’ – just practice.

The pitfall you want to avoid is jumping around and doing a million kettlebell exercises just for the sake of getting fancy. This is a little like what I tried to do when I first started training with kettlebells – and it didn’t work very well. Once I really focused in on the basics – the Swing, the Get Up, the Squat, the Snatch, and the Clean and Press – is when it all kind of came together.

Keep practicing those kettlebell drills!
