Download or read book Kettlebell Swing and Snatch Efficiency in CrossFit written by Taco Fleur and published by Cavemantraining. This book was released on with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First things first, this book contains information on how to run a workshop in your CrossFit box or any other gym that wants to help their students improve their efficiency with the American Swing and Kettlebell Snatches. It is assumed you will have a foundation or knowledge of both exercises prior to running this workshop. Having said that, the book does include a format which could teach yourself, it also has plenty of external links to high-quality articles and videos to understand what is explained in the workshop format. The primary aim of this workshop is to improve efficiency in American Swings and Kettlebell Snatches. This goal is achieved by building the movement up from hip hinging, to conventional swing, swing variations, snatch and snatch variations; and most importantly, making participants understand how these variations affect performance and muscles. Most of this material is written as if directly speaking to the audience, this allows you to read and speak directly from the material, rather than first reading, deciphering and deciding how to present it to the audience. I've run this workshop several times and left some of the parts in that apply to me, you should edit those parts out. Can be used as a 4-hour workshop or for self-study: the primary aim is to improve efficiency with the American Swing and Kettlebell Snatches. This goal is achieved by building the movement up from Hip Hinging to the Conventional Kettlebell Swing AKA Russian Swing, covering swing and snatch variations, and finally getting across these variations affect performance and muscles so the right choices can be made at the right time.

Download or read book Master Kettlebell Grips written by Taco Fleur and published by Cavemantraining. This book was released on with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the most basic and fundamental information for kettlebell training, grip! Many years ago I decided to dedicate a book on grips, after seeing many people fumble with kettlebell grips during transitions and exercises. Knowing how to grip/hold your kettlebell is extremely important for efficiency and safety. Why should you learn about grips? It is important to know and understand kettlebell grips for efficiency and being able to work the muscles intended for the exercise in question. Employing an incorrect grip can mean pain; being uncomfortable; cause for injury; exhausting grip, forearm, biceps or shoulder muscles and losing focus on the muscles targeted with a specific exercise. Why use different grips? If you're asking this question, then you're asking the right question because knowing a lot of grips is cool, but knowing why you would change grip or use one over the other is even cooler and the part you should really understand. During kettlebell training, you employ different grips to make certain exercises more efficient, but you also change grips to increase difficulty and challenge other muscle groups. Sometimes when your training gets stale you might even employ a different grip to please the mind. While knowing kettlebell grips and when to employ them is important and one of the kettlebell fundamentals, the second most important thing you should start looking into is racking a kettlebell. It might seem insignificant, but a lot hinges on how you rack your kettlebell, in fact, some people give up on kettlebell training because they can't get comfortable in the racking position or can't find the proper position for the bell to rest. This book contains over 25 kettlebell training grips and comes paired with a photo for each and everyone. This is it, this is what you'll be building the rest of your kettlebell journey upon, without this information you'll be fumbling around with the kettlebell and even after years of training still look like you just started.

Download or read book Master The Lunge written by Taco Fleur and published by Cavemantraining. This book was released on with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even if you take just the one most important tip away from this book, it will be worth 10 x more than its weight in gold. The answer to why and when to choose the reverse lunge over the forward lunge. Understand how to create hundreds of lunge variations yourself. Learn how to fix and pick up on common issues with the lunge. “The lunge is functional as it is a transitory moment in walking where a squat with feet parallel is stationary. This adds a requirement for balance under load with motion, a situation where injuries and falls often occur. The lunge improves our human movement patterns by making them stronger in a practical sense.” Dave Murray The lunge is an important exercise everyone should include in their training for strength, stability, and even added flexibility. This book covers the basic lunge and its variations, muscles used, step by step break down, priceless tips that will help you perform better, know why to chose one over the other, and much more. Links to several videos of lunges with kettlebells are also included. “Following my knee replacement, the lunge is the hardest but most important movement to master as it utilizes all of the stabilizing muscles and tendons. The lunge also means that I will have a powerful base for nearly all judo moves and stances. Mastery of the lunge means that I’ll have functional movement for the rest of my life.” Stuart Rotman All Cavemantraining books: Master The Hip Hinge (currently viewing) On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingMaster The Lunge On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingMaster Kettlebell Grips and Racking On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingKettlebell Training Fundamentals On Amazon, iTunes, or Cavemantraining Contains the kettlebell grips and racking bookMaster The Kettlebell Clean On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingMaster The Kettlebell Press On Amazon or CavemantrainingMaster The Kettlebell Swing On Amazon or CavemantrainingKettlebell Workouts And Challenges 1.0 On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingFlexibility, Mobility, and Strength Without Yoga On Amazon, iTunes, or Cavemantraining “The lunge is important for strong muscles of the buttocks, we stretch the hip flexors and exercise the balance of the body.” Vjekoslava Petroci Fićković Table of Contents Master The LungeDefinitions and TerminologyMusclesBodyweight LungeQuadriceps AKA QuadsGluteus MaximusHamstringsStabilizersWeighted Lunge StabilizersWhat Is Pelvic Tilt and Why Is It Important to Know?Basic LungeMain PointsTrainer CuesImproved PostureForward FlexionLoad the QuadricepsRecommended FootwearWhere to Put Your Hands and Does It Really Matter?Lunge DepthRear LegSliding Rear LegProgrammingFor StrengthFor CardioFor ExplosivenessFor PowerFor StabilityFor FlexibilityMajor BenefitsBlack and White ProgrammingProgressionIssuesLower-back PainKnee PainLosing BalanceHow to Do the Weighted Racked Reverse LungeSome People Ask “Why Are Reverse Lunges More Taxing?”Bad LungeProgressionBecome Certified
