I love this guy. It's like he loaded all the words he wanted to say into his mouth before he started and he just lets that shit fall out however the hell it wants. He don't give two shits.
Jeff was a good friend of my old Jiu-Jitsu instructor on Cape Cod, they took kung fu together back in the day. Dude is a fucking specimen. We trained with him a couple times down in the Dungeon.. He's a good guy.
Everyone's different. I've been working out with dumbbells all my adult life and never felt like I made progress, I just didn't get it. A year of working with kettlebells and I actually got strength and size which is significant since I'm 59 and find myself building more muscle than when I was younger. Maybe it was just that I found the dumbbells repetitive and boring and was just never coached. Regardless, kettlebells changed me. Thanks for this video.
Oh it's just a case of 'kaka?'... Right?.... Yeah man, totally, you know, er, kaka. Getting really technical here, but, er.. You know, kaka yeah? Yeah. Kaka. And then to just nail it. Sorry... what was the question?...
I think the explanation in this video is not so good, but when he taught us how to clean on a certification, he did pretty good: actually, I think he's a good lecturer/coach
Gabriel Alicea it’s the only explanation I’ve been able to understand. You slip the hand in. It slips around the hand before it can fly and bang down. Kaka on the hand.
Bought this for my youngest to develop basic form for single hand kettlebell work. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxtaDAl93XF8wxJhssTtjIFjzid82wglva It has a nice grip on it, just a little rough so it isn't slippery. I was doing a few rotator cuff exercises to test and worked well for those movements I'd been doing with a regular dumbbell. Cool thing you can do is hold it in your hand for door-knob turns to work the forearm and grip. Note: it's small, almost all handle, but that's what I expected given the weight. Smallest I've worked with before is 15lbs, so it was kind of funny to see the difference 10lbs makes.
I don't know why Jeff Martone was ever allowed to be a CrossFit Seminar Coach with his incomprehensible way of communicating. He knows the movements, but that's not enough.
Not a terrbile video relative to where you want to end up but no explanation as to how to get there. The guy asking the question had that bell flipping over creating that bang on the forearms. Best tips I've seen to avoid that is set the bell with the handle parallel to your stance not perpendicular, reach down and grab the bell with your thumb facing backwards and your palm facing your leg on the same side, then think about zipping and unzipping a coat. The bell should more rotate around your wrist instead of going over the top and banging into your forearm.
Lawrence Bartos Zach even esh said in one of his videos to think of a clean like zipping up your jacket and it's stuck with me ever since, a really good tip !!
This feels like an anti-crossfit PSA. A RKS instructor would have never let someone hold two kettlebells before properly swinging one, let alone a double-clean.
I wonder how much those bells weigh I just got a 60 because the 35 at work seemed way to light. But these guys are making those bells look like child's play.
so so so it's like, its like, it's like...so so so spend sixty seconds to write a script. This is good information, take it seriously and know what you are going to say ahead of time so you are not fumbling. Thank you kindly for the tip
Being barefoot around a bunch of heavy weights doesn’t seem like a very bright idea. Then again, I’m a retired ballet dancer. I’ve spent almost a lifetime guarding my feet and keeping them safe.
+Aves Raggiana I get your point but a shoe won't protect your foot from the impact of a solid steel kettlebell. The best way to stay safe is just to be smart and don't drop it.
Good description of most crossfit coaches. ... don’t know how to teach. Or explain things. And ends with “ that’s it” when they showed and explained kaka
The guy with Che on his shirt? Yeah, apparently he’s not a reader otherwise he’d know all he was was nothing more than a lackey for Castro, killing innocents. And eventually Castro even got tired of him and sent him off so he could do the world a favor and die. The guy in this video with that shirt - hope he haunted by the screams of the dead when he sleeps, like drunken banshees alone and lost in the woods. I digress. Good instruction. Well done. Carry on. As you were.
You externally rotate your shoulder overhead so your triceps doesn't get fatigued? That makes literally no sense, who the fuck is this guy and why is he allowed to teach?
I love this guy. It's like he loaded all the words he wanted to say into his mouth before he started and he just lets that shit fall out however the hell it wants. He don't give two shits.
I’m glad the comment section reiterated what I was thinking. This sums up CrossFit coaching stereotypes.
A coherent full sentence would be a good start.
Why waste time say lot words when few words do trick
Kah kahh!
You stole my thought!! 😂😂
Exactly
some people just can't articulate...he's got great technique...he just can't describe what he's doing, well.
@the business handler its still a mess.
The absolute perfect description.
I seriously can't get enough of these crossfit videos.
This guy is way to chill to not be high.
hahaha spot on
That's Cali style baby
all im doing .. im actually just ... cause whats happening ehh actually is like mhh getting real technical there is like ..
KAKA!!
Great transcript...
he talks so much. but he says nothing
I was just thinking that. Economy of words.
I like it, he's got an eccentric quality to him, seems cool
Great explanation. Thank you Jeff.
llc
Was it though?
"I'm getti'n real technical here" ....
His communiation in this video was not his best, but this guy know his technique. It is far superior to many UA-cam coaches out there.
I like the way this dude coaches.
hahahaha 1:54 the way jeff says, "...just like a false grip." epic
It truly is
Jeff was a good friend of my old Jiu-Jitsu instructor on Cape Cod, they took kung fu together back in the day. Dude is a fucking specimen. We trained with him a couple times down in the Dungeon.. He's a good guy.
Did he do a complete rep once in this video? I appreciate the break down, but it would be great to see a complete rep from beginning to end.
Lol

Thanks for sharing, Alex! If you need more workout inspiration, check out the workout of the day here: www.crossfit.com/workout
To all those hating to his talking, stop! Man is dropping dimes for free.

Sorry... what was the question?...
kaka?
Carlos Bellido The noise he made when he lifted the kettlebell at 2:10. I think it's a technical term.
rube3k lol
LOLOL
So, they guy obviously knows what he's doing. But no, can't explain nothing.
I literally learned nothing. This guy just waffles
This video is a perfect example of CrossFit
I think the explanation in this video is not so good, but when he taught us how to clean on a certification, he did pretty good: actually, I think he's a good lecturer/coach
Horrible explanation. He likely knows his stuff but can convey it very well at all.
Gabriel Alicea it’s the only explanation I’ve been able to understand. You slip the hand in. It slips around the hand before it can fly and bang down. Kaka on the hand.
Love Jeff Martone's teachings, best stuff around

Wow i didn't know kettlebell snatching makes you high.
Do the back of your wrists get tougher the after doing these for a while??
Great info! Thanks
Spencer Nagle no they don’t, you’re supposed to slide them along your wrists, not slam into them, that’s how you break your arm.
How much do these kettlebells weigh.
He is so good at what he does, i've seen him live...but I hate that he never looks at the camera!!!!
Does this poor guy have a head injury? :(
I don't know why Jeff Martone was ever allowed to be a CrossFit Seminar Coach with his incomprehensible way of communicating. He knows the movements, but that's not enough.
Jeff is the best! awesome dude!
To all of you complaining go to master Pavel Tsatsouline's videos he has a lot of good stuff you could benefit from.
Comrade!
Thanks comrade
It's making me laugh so hard right now.

Jeff is a grandmaster, a crossfit emeritus. He was slinging them before cross fit got out of its diapers.
Jeff is the man. Too bad very few know it. He was tossing kettlebells around before many even knew what they were.
Jeff is a great guy too
This feels like an anti-crossfit PSA. A RKS instructor would have never let someone hold two kettlebells before properly swinging one, let alone a double-clean.
Hey Mr, Jeff Martone
Do you have Begginner to Advance of Kettlebell DVDs?
I wonder how much those bells weigh I just got a 60 because the 35 at work seemed way to light. But these guys are making those bells look like child's play.
Yellow is 16kg (35lb)
weight?
He‘s Great!
so so so it's like, its like, it's like...so so so spend sixty seconds to write a script. This is good information, take it seriously and know what you are going to say ahead of time so you are not fumbling. Thank you kindly for the tip
good pointers but a little staggered in description
I can't stop laughing
Crossfiters really need a legend like Jeff Martone. Because their form sucks🤣 Jeff is really one of the best in world in terms o kettlebells
Being barefoot around a bunch of heavy weights doesn’t seem like a very bright idea.
Then again, I’m a retired ballet dancer. I’ve spent almost a lifetime guarding my feet and keeping them safe.
+Aves Raggiana I get your point but a shoe won't protect your foot from the impact of a solid steel kettlebell. The best way to stay safe is just to be smart and don't drop it.
DO THIS IF YOU WANT AN INJURY
You also watched Athlean-X?
yeet
The hand movement is almost impossible to get with a ader bell. Looks like this is more designed for sportbells
something really bothers me about the giant multi color kettlebells that weight 3 pounds
You should get that checked...
This guy is wildly inarticulate.
Drew brees??
It sounds like he once got wacked by a kettlebell. 😂 “Soo...umm....like...umm”😂
Clear as mud
Aportazo !!!
right?
Good description of most crossfit coaches. ... don’t know how to teach. Or explain things. And ends with “ that’s it” when they showed and explained kaka
Did the guy even open his eyes?
So its like you know not to go all technical right like but you know see judt like this see that how deep it is see and thats like...
Diaz brothers uncle
Why would CrossFit post this? I’ve seen rookies explain the clean better then that
If the doctor from idiocracy was a trainer
I call that the tote bag position
holy crap camerman zoom out @1:23
The fuck he say?
Sounds just like Nick Diaz
I’m not sure what it is he’s saying…
Lol I didn’t understand anything!
Is this guy a politician? He just mumbles and hopes that people don't listen to what he's saying, because he's not saying anything.
is it just me or the guy was asking the other guy? they just put you there for the likes and the jerks can make sex jokes in the comments honey.
i have no idea what he said....
Is that Kevin Bacon?
Then Jeff*
did anyone just understand the words that came out of his mouth?
It seems like he started off in “broken arm” position.
CACAWW
is he high?
dude looks like richie cunningham
He is good, but he you let someone write him a script first.
I would never hire someone like this, can’t understand what he is saying.
...I don’t know what’s happening...
Shouldve let the lady explain SMH
Please tell me that isn't the murdering sociopath Che Guevara on that TShirt!
Show Some Respect, Jeff Martone is an experienced Kettlebell Trainer smh bunch of clowns thinking you're more experienced this Jeff
The guy with Che on his shirt? Yeah, apparently he’s not a reader otherwise he’d know all he was was nothing more than a lackey for Castro, killing innocents. And eventually Castro even got tired of him and sent him off so he could do the world a favor and die.

I digress. Good instruction. Well done. Carry on. As you were.
shy guy ))
Much more helpful on MUTE!
guys blazed
This literally made zero sense... Shame because like most people I know I do the clean wrong
@reverb6569 of course I am, but still can't see what he's doing different to the kid, just can see whatever he is doing is not smashing his forearm.
What?
Chalk. Always chalk.
He sounds high as fuck... just like Benjisaur said LMAO
So, so when its, watch when it swings here, right then fhoop
Kah kah
This has to be a fucking joke lol
he's higher than the everest
You externally rotate your shoulder overhead so your triceps doesn't get fatigued? That makes literally no sense, who the fuck is this guy and why is he allowed to teach?
right, yea, äh, right, you know...
That. Was so poor. Did not explain well at all
Explaining is not your thing man lol
wtf???
This dude cant even explain a sentence straight.
