Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.ericleija.com/this-is-how-to-do-the-perfect-kettlebell-swing/ Quotes to ponder: "The first thing you need to know about the kettlebell swing is that it’s not an upper-body exercise. The power comes from your hips." "One of the most important things to keep in mind is to hinge from your hips rather than squatting down." "If you feel like you’re lifting the weight up with your upper-body strength, think more about sending your hips forward with a snap, it’s more of a sharp movement than a slow, heavy one."
