At the moment I’m teaching two small groups of people on a regular base. One group is somehow advanced, the other group are complete novices in terms of kettlebells. While the advanced group is certainly more “interesting” from a technical and exercise selection point of view, I can see and feel over and over again how important the basics are to kettlebell lifting when I teach beginners.
As we all know (but more often than not forget), mastering the basics is fundamental to any kind of success, doesn’t matter what sport or task in general. The cool thing is, by teaching the finer points of the most fundamental kettlebell exercises, by repeating them again and again, by watching others perform and correcting them, observing the different body types and skill levels, I always learn so much for myself and what I can do to better my teaching and my own technique. The point I’m trying to make is, as Steve Cotter once said, one should always try to stay a student (in all aspects of life) first and foremost. This way, everyone will benefit and life stays exciting ;)
PS: I hope everyone noticed the manly weight I used in the second pic ;)
