Look up Dan John's 10,000 kettlebell swing challenge. It'll keep you busy for a month.

I wouldn't recommend jumping into this unless you've been swinging kettlebells for a while! It's next on my list after I conquer the Simple goal in Simple and Sinister, but from what I've read the tips on the 10,000 swing challenge are to be able to comfortably swing 200-300 times per day before you start if you don't want to collapse after day three.

@kota4bye I did a tabata kettlebell workout the other day and it has a lot of swings like this work out does. 40 swings 40 one handed each side 40 handoffs and them quads were shakin haha. First time I felt the burn of kettlebell swings! I am definitely gonna check this out! Thanks

Did the 10000 swing challenge. Hard but awesome at stripping fat.

At he moment I'm bumping up the weight of the bell(s) and doing sets of lower reps. Actually I'm replacing swings with cleans quite a bit now. Still a hinge.

Just curious-what weight bell did you use, and did you do it one or two handed? I was thinking when I do it I will use my 35lb bell; I can fairly easily do 100 swings with 50lbs, but I figured 35lbs was more doable for a longer period of time...my aim is to do it at the end of the summer, hopefully by then I will have smashed the Simple goal in Simple&Sinister.

I heard and have seen that kettlebells are the great piece of fitness equipment that you can use to focus on any body part for workout. Internet is full of kettlebell information nowadays as they are attracting every fitness enthusiast attention towards them. I found this short and nice video on full body kettlebell workout that I usually do to get good results.
