    You have an old short that had most of these. It was funny because it was so old one of the exercises was a Turkish getup😂, witch I swapped with a windmill. This is an awesome group of exercises. I think adding a squat wouldn't hurt.
    Thanks again sir

    This is brilliant - do you have any recommendations for progression from low to high windmill? As the majority of KB users typically need to use a much lighter KB for high windmill than for the other exercises here.

  • @normanquednau

    Grüetzi Gregory😊 The old time strongmen reflected exactly the "pressing" philosophy... Look at Eugen Sandow: incredible shoulders, rather slim pecs. Practicing the good old bent press -it hits a lot of mobility-!

    The big 4 barbell lifts are fantastic for pure strength, but no barbell aficionado talks about benching for even 1 minute let alone 10 minutes as in KB sport! The strength endurance benefits provided by the big 5 kettlebell lifts you demonstrated here are unequaled and none of the barbell lifts give you the rotational benefits of the windmill! Keep on preaching Gregory! 👍

    • @lebe-stark
      @lebe-stark  15 днів тому +3

      I see! I assume I got them from lots of overhead work such as Press, Jerk & Snatch. These exercises also build strong external rotators which the rear delts are a part of.

  • @powskier
    @powskier 15 днів тому

    Yes, you can get fit training this way, but you'll never be strong without doing the big 4 barbell lifts. You forgot to mention overhead press which you actually could substitute with kettlebell presses if you wanted.

    • @lebe-stark
      @lebe-stark  15 днів тому +1

      You’ll not only become strong for everyday life with kettlebells, but you’ll also strengthen the most important muscle of the body - which is the heart - simultaneously. This unparalleled benefit turns barbells into an optional but not required implement.

    • @rrr777www
      @rrr777www 15 днів тому

      Strong for everyday life is just another way of saying fit. You will absolutely become stronger with barbells over kettlebells. This doesn't mean either is superior. Different purposes.

    • @powskier
      @powskier 15 днів тому

      @@lebe-stark There is that. I incorporate kettlebells twice a week and barbell lifting for 3. A big hobby of mine is mountain biking so that covers aerobic training. But I quit barbell lifting years ago but still did kettlebells. My barbell lifts went down embarrassingly low, even though kettlebell lifts were slowly going up. But after I started barbell training again, my kettlebell lifts went up faster than when I was doing them full time. I find the most important exercise is the barbell squat. Goblet squats don't even compare. But I don't even do full deadlift anymore. I get the same benefits doing RDLs off a low rack or blocks. I bench because I dropped below 2 plates because of injuries and not doing it.. But I have no desire to bench 350 or whatever. Instead of overhead lifts, I choose double kettlebell clean and press, snatches and windmills.

      Switching to kettlebells has given me the best results. Barbells are king for building strength because they allow for heavy loading, but the human body is capable of much more than just that.

    • @powskier
      @powskier 15 днів тому

      @@lebe-stark The overhead version of the windmill seems similar. I'm interested. How is the loading on the shoulder that much different? Maybe this is an idea for a video? Nobody has done one yet, it's safe to say. I like windmills better anyway.

    • @lebe-stark
      @lebe-stark  14 днів тому +1

      I agree that part of the Windmill is included in the Get Up. The prone to standing choreography with a weight overhead creates a higher risk for several reasons.

  • @foldinghomealone

    I can't imagine that the way you are doing the clean is good for your lower back. When you hold it in the upper position you lean backwards and make an extreme hollow back under load. Don't think this can be good

    • @lebe-stark
      @lebe-stark  14 днів тому

      It‘s no issue at all because the weight is not resting on the lower back but the hips.
