Do a youtube video search for "kettlebell exercises," and you'll find
many exercises that are ridiculously complicated. When you see them,
don't just immediately attempt to perform them. First ask yourself,
"Why?" Every exercise has a "cost versus benefit ratio." That means
every exercise you perform has inherent risk for injury, some more than
others. Likewise, each exercise has inherent benefits, which when
performed correctly and consistently, outweigh its risks for injury.
Before you perform any exercise, be CERTAIN that the
potential reward greatly outweighs any risks. If you find yourself
performing a pushup on a "bottom-up" kettlebell, while simultaneously
having your feet wobbling on top of a stability ball, don't complain
when you make your trip to the dentist!
