I was on a podcast interview yesterday, and one of the questions threw me for a loop.

It was –

“If you could go back and do one thing differently when it comes to your kettlebell training journey, what would it be?”

After an uncomfortably long silence while I thought about the answer … I came up with –

“I would spend more time mastering the basics.”

Simple answer, but quite powerful, if I do say so myself 🙂

See, most people – myself included – get excited and enthused about kettlebell training when they first start getting into it, and want to do the cool-looking, “fancier”, more advanced moves, as soon as possible.

Thing is, a solid foundation in the BASICS is what will help you build a base for the future. You can get in great shape, and get a LOT of milage with just a few basic exercises – like swings, Turkish get ups, and goblet squats.

The key is taking the time to learn these exercises correctly and perfectly BEFORE you progress to the more advanced stuff.

The Kettlebell Evolution system that we’ve been talking about all week, is ALL about mastering the KB basics:
