Kettlebell Workouts with Master Geoff Neupert

“Swing HARD!” https://salutis.kartra.com/page/SWING-HARD-2 “Kettlebell MAXIMORUM” https://go.chasingstrength.com/5-lifts-maxim/ I've spent 20+ years telling men over 40 to use kettlebells. Last month I changed my mind. Not about kettlebells. About the barrier to entry. After two decades of coaching, I realized the number one problem with kettlebell training for guys our age isn't the exercises. It's the energy it takes to learn them properly.  So here's my new position — and it's simpler than anything I've said before. WHY I'VE BEEN PUSHING FULL KETTLEBELL TRAINING: If you've watched this channel for any length of time you know my position: the Double Kettlebell Clean + Press is the go-to exercise for men over 40. Add in Double Kettlebell Front Squats and a Single Kettlebell Snatch, and there's almost no physical quality you can't train: ✅ Strength — so you're still capable and useful as you get older ✅ Power — so you don't slip, fall, a...

Better Than Thrusters For Leg & Upper Body Strength https://go.chasingstrength.com/5-lifts-maxim/ Thrusters pack a powerful metabolic wallop. They use almost every muscle at once. They're time efficient. CrossFit built them into gospel.  And in most cases — especially if you actually want to get stronger — you'd be better off not doing them. Here's my honest take after 30 years of coaching, a 352lb Push Press, and training hundreds of men over 40 whose knees and hips have serious mileage on them. WHAT A THRUSTER ACTUALLY IS: I didn't know what a Thruster was until about 20 years ago — CrossFit introduced it to most of us. Simple definition: a Front Squat that ends in a Press. You squat the weight. Accelerate through the sticking point. Instead of slowing down at lockout, you keep accelerating and transfer that force directly into a Press overhead. Some call it a Long Press. Same movement, different name. It uses almost every muscle in your body simultaneously — whi...

Get rid of chronic aches, pains, niggles, and the little tweaks that keep circling back. Use what I use – The P3 Protocol https://go.chasingstrength.com/sore-joint-solution-p3-protocol/ “If it doesn't make me SWOLE I don’t do it!” Sound familiar? You train hard. You push through the little aches and tweaks. You skip the “boring” stuff because it doesn't build muscle. Then one day, you bend down to pick something up… and your low back grabs. Or you get out of bed and suddenly feel 20 years older. The problem isn't always the workout itself. Training is a stressor on your body. And when you pile hard training on top of work stress, lack of sleep, and everything else life throws at you, that stress can eventually catch up with you. I've learned this the hard way. After years of heavy training, compressed nerve roots in my lower back, and multiple hip injuries, I eventually realized something: Restoration work isn't something you do instead of training. It's what al...

Ready For Hollow Holds? Take These Core Stability & Core Strength Tests To Know For Sure. h ttps://salutis.kartra.com/page/DgM58 3 Strip Off Body Fat Using A Single Kettlebell h ttps://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn-sa 4/ Take this core stability test, and then this core strength test to see if you have what it takes to jump into Hollow Holds. h ttps://salutis.kartra.com/page/DgM58 3 Most men over 40 are training their abs in the wrong order. They jump straight to Hollow Holds, planks, and crunches — skipping the two exercises that make all of them actually work. The result: years of "core training" with a low back that still complains, a midsection that still rolls over the jeans, and a core that still can't do its one real job. Here are the 3 exercises I actually recommend — and the sequence that makes them work. THE TWO TYPES OF ABS MOST MEN DON'T KNOW ABOUT: Before I give you the exercises, you need to understand what you're actually training — be...

Make Your Double Kettlebell Snatch Feel Effortless with “Technique Stacking” 👉 https://salutis.kartra.com/page/strong-ts Become More Powerful With Single Kettlebell Snatch Programming 👉 https://cart.chasingstrength.com/ksk2 Most guys who ask me about the Double Kettlebell Snatch are chasing a feeling. That explosive, powerful, "I can still do this" feeling that most men over 40 haven't felt since they were playing football, grappling, or deadlifting in their prime. I get it completely. I also almost never do the Double Kettlebell Snatch. After 30 years of coaching and a lifetime of barbell snatching — here's my completely honest take on whether you should. WHY MEN OVER 40 ARE DRAWN TO THIS: There are a handful of things that set fire to a man's soul. Grappling. Football. A heavy deadlift. Serving downrange.  Most of us over 40 are trying to recapture some version of that feeling through our training. Which is probably why so many guys push every set to failure, ...

Get your challenging double kettlebell complex programs that deliver that “got a great workout in” feeling here.  👉 https://cart.chasingstrength.com/hard3b Kettlebell complexes can hurt you — and you usually won't know it until it's too late. Not because complexes are bad. Because most men jump straight into hard complex workouts before their technique is ready for the fatigue they create. I've been using complexes since 1995 — as warm-ups for Olympic lifting, with Division I athletes at Rutgers, and with private clients for 30 years. Here's what I know about the difference between complexes that build you up and complexes that quietly break you down. WHAT A KETTLEBELL COMPLEX IS: Simple definition: a series of exercises performed back-to-back, without rest, without putting the kettlebell down. Example: 5 Cleans → 5 Presses → 5 Front Squats That's it. Three exercises. No rest. One continuous effort. They're time efficient — you can get a genuinely productive ...
