In the video, the actress performed the exercise and was heard saying, “Kettlebell swings are easy to do and help strengthen your whole body.” She also shared additional

tips in the video to perfect the form.

She wrote in the video, “Full-body power move… strength cardio. Drive from the hips…arms only guide, they don’t lift. Targets the glutes, hamstrings & back. High burns, low impact..boosts metabolism. Form is everything…breathe out as you swing up.”

In her caption, Bhagyashree highlighted that breathing properly is the key to performing the exercise properly. She wrote, “Kettlebell swings are a strengthening exercise for your glutes & hamstrings. It also targets your core. Correct breathing while you do the hip thrust is a must. Your arms do not take the weight, it is the dynamic movement of the hip thrusts that helps you to swing the kettlebell.”

Benefits of Kettlebell swings

Kettlebell swings are a great exercise that offers full-body conditioning and helps build strength (especially in the posterior chain, core, and shoulders) and endurance. It also boosts cardiovascular fitness and burns significant calories while also being a low-impact exercise. Kettlebell swings are an excellent way to combine cardio and strength training and for overall fat loss. This exercise targets the glutes, hamstrings, back, core, shoulders and arms.

How to do Kettlebell swings

Like hip thrusts and Romanian deadlifts, Kettlebell swings also rely on the hip hinge movement. To properly perform a Kettlebell swing, hinge at your hips, do not squat, with your arms holding the bell, bring it between your legs, then drive your hips forward to swing the bell up to chest/shoulder height, keeping arms straight. Make sure the power comes from your glutes and hamstrings, not your arms, before letting it swing back down to repeat.
