The fitness industry has seen a surge in the popularity of exercises that the media claim to be the next best thing, ideal for assisting trainers of all levels in getting in peak physical condition.
Aside from deadlifts, there aren’t many exercises that offer equal satisfaction to kettlebell swings
Kettlebell swings hit the posterior chain - the muscles on the rear of the body - but more specifically, the glutes, the upper and lower back, and hamstrings.
A great benefit of kettlebell swings is that they carry over to lower-body compound movements such as the front squat, barbell row, and Romanian deadlift.
