The hip hinge is one of the fundamental movement patterns that we use. The hip hinge is essentially limiting the movement potential of the entire system to having all flexion and extension driven from the hip joint. Top Apex NC chiropractor Tri Myers explains that the goal is to have the spine stay neutral throughout the entire movement. That is the job of the Core… stabilize the spine from all external forces.

That is were the kettlebell swing comes into play. It is a flowing hip hinge. The kettlebell swing works the muscles in the hips, glutes, hamstrings, lats, abs, shoulders, pecs and grip. It's a simple and fast way to incorporate a very athletic movement into a routine safely while burning a ton of calories. The kettlebell swing is the perfect way to increase fat burning without sacrificing hard-earned muscle mass, as you do with regular cardio.
