What is a Single Arm Kettlebell Swing?
The Single Arm Kettlebell Swing modifies the same movement as a standard two arm swing, but focuses on deeper strengthening of one arm at a time. Kettlebells allow for greater range of motion than other weight training methods, while the swing motion incorporates some cardio into the workout.

Stand with your feet slightly further than shoulder-width apart. Push your hips back and slightly bend your knees. Grab the kettlebell handle with your right hand and extend your left arm out from your side.
Stap 2
Start by swinging your right hand backward between your legs. Make sure the handle of the kettlebell remains slightly higher than your knees.
