Hinge and snap the hips to drive the bell.
What coaches agree on
- Brace with a sharp inhale as the bell swings down, then exhale forcefully - almost like throwing a punch - as you drive your hips through at the top.
- Snap your hips to full extension and squeeze your glutes and core hard at the top of every rep.
Show moreShow less
- Keep your lats engaged so your arms stay packed against your torso throughout the swing.
Common mistakes
- Turning the swing into a squat by bending the knees and dropping straight down rather than hinging back at the hips.
- Muscling the bell up with the arms, turning the swing into a front raise, rather than driving it from the hips.
- Letting the lower back round, especially when reaching down for the bell.
