" One of my favorite kettlebell exercises that can be broken down into three movements, but they only really make sense when done together 🫶🏼
Iron cross + outside pendulum + outside sn**ch
The iron cross is my intentional resisting of the bell from free-falling by packing my shoulder blade, balancing the bell on the back of my wrist, and slowly bringing the bell down to my side - it demands core strength, shoulder resilience, and patience.
The outside pendulum is my allowing of the bell to fall, where I introduce a hip hinge and slight knee bend, along with an internal rotation of my shoulder - all of which are going to set me up for a powerful extension and rotation coming out of this movement.
Finally, the outside sn**ch - ending up back where I started at the top of the iron cross. The bell can only make it overhead if I performed the outside pendulum properly.
Together, these three movements form my all-time favorite exercise to include in a flow. What should I call it? "
