✔️ Deep technique understanding (not just cues)
✔️ Clear progressions and regressions
✔️ Better coaching eye and confidence
✔️ Systems you can actually apply with clients

For home users:
✔️ Learn why movements work, not just how
✔️ Train safely without guessing
✔️ Build strength, mobility, and confidence
✔️ Structure your training instead of hopping workouts

This isn’t about collecting certificates. It’s about owning the skill and understanding the movement.

Exercise: Kettlebell Strict Press — Eccentric Lowering
Load: 36kg
Movement Phase Analyzed: Eccentric (negative)
✔ Primary Joint Actions

Shoulder adduction + controlled internal rotation, moving from overhead toward rack.

Scapular depression + retraction maintaining shoulder stability.

Elbow flexion under control without collapsing medially.

Wrist neutral avoiding radial/ulnar deviation.

✔ Key Mechanical Characteristics

Bell remains close to vertical midline.

No anterior drift (which overloads the shoulder capsule).

Core maintains anti-extension to stabilize the press line.

Descent tempo increases time under tension → hypertrophy stimulus + motor learning.

✔ Why this matters

Produces stronger concentric output

Improves shoulder mechanics

Trains structural rack position

Reduces injury risk

Builds pressing endurance

Improves overhead stability

This is textbook IKU-level strict press eccentric control.

If there was a business offering access to 250+ online kettlebell classes (in videos), added 3 new ones each month, offered camps or challenges each month, provided coaching with that as well, gave access to an online interface to interact with the workouts, plus so much more, how much would you say that is worth? Would you say $6.50 a week is way too low?

Join the November challenge MAX KB STRENGTH, and I will give you two tasks to complete. Task one is to improve your one rep max for any of the given exercises, and task two is to learn/master a new exercise.

Your work may involve no more than 2 minutes a day for either 4 or 6 weeks, you decide.

We are working on improving your 1RM (one rep-max) strength for one, two, or more of the following exercises:
⭐ Hardstyle single-arm kettlebell swing
⭐ Hardstyle double-arm kettlebell swing
⭐ Strict Shoulder Press
⭐ Bent Press
⭐ Push Press
⭐ Jerk
⭐ Hardstyle Sn**ch
⭐ Turkish Get-up
⭐ Racked squat

I explain how this may take no more than 2 minutes of your day. I will explain several strategies to improve your 1RM at the end of the 4 or 6 weeks. But more importantly, you will have access to me during your challenge and both Anna and I are available to help you improve your form and technique (which is one of the key factors to increasing your 1RM).

You will get several ebooks. Access to the inner circle. Access to over 250+ kettlebell classes/workouts, and so much more.

✅ Ebook Master The Kettlebell Press
✅ Ebook How to Perform The Turkish Get-Up Correctly
✅ Ebook Kettlebell Training Fundamentals
✅ And so much more
