Single-Arm Kettlebell Swing
Swing the bell to chest height with the hip drive, one arm at a time; the free arm balances or switches grip at the top.
How to do it
Setup
Bell a step ahead, hinge and hike it back with ONE hand, free arm balancing.
Steps
- Snap the hips – the bell floats to chest height.
- Keep the shoulders square despite the single grip.
- Hinge on the fall and repeat; switch arms.
Common mistakes
Torso rotating with the bell: square is the anti-rotation work. Arm lifting: hips launch, the arm rides. Bell drifting sideways: it swings through the center line.
Breathing
Sharp exhale on the snap, inhale on the backswing.
