Exercise of the Week: Band Resisted Kettlebell Swing

August 22, 2020Craig Edwards Leave a comment

I’m a huge fan of Kettlebell Swings. We use them for both athletes and adults at MaxWay Performance. And from time to time we will add a band to add a little more resistance at the top as well as creating a larger eccentric overload. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U56Jp8Qxdos
