Kettlebell Swing Single hand
A progression from the two-handed kettlebell swing. A full body strength exercise, good for power development.

Avoid letting your back round during the swing. Keep your spine neutral and your core engaged to protect your lower back.
The power should come from your hips, not your arms. Avoid lifting the kettlebell with your arm muscles; focus on snapping your hips forward to generate momentum.
Avoid locking out or hyperextending your knees at the top of the swing. Keep a slight bend in your knees throughout the movement.
