Pavel's Weekly Russian Kettlebell Challenge Tip: A crisper and more powerful kettlebell swing
A great swing visualization tip by Ken Black, RKC.
"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

Simple yet powerful advice. this really does work!

Very cool, I always go through an imaginary sequence ( or rather weightless sequence ) before i do anything new.
I just figured out I tend to go loose and loose tension when the 'bell is at the top of the swing/high pull/snatch then try to get it back.
I can't communicate how amazed i am that there are so many subtle permutations to such a simple movement.
A minute to learn a lifetime to master.
Thanks for posting the link Rif. Hey I will be down your way next Wednesday. I will get the vids of Nick to you then. I'll call before then to set up a time and place.
Thanks for the kind words Franz.
