I was doing the Steve Maxwell 300 Kettlebell workout (Exercise 6; one arm Swing High Pull) and I think I might have twisted my back slightly at the top of the move. At this point I felt a sudden, sharp pain strip across my middle back (just below the shoulder blades). I stopped training straight away. If I twist to either side now for any reason I can feel pain in this area. Any ideas on what I might have done?..pulled a muscle, or strained a muscle? What is the best way to recover?
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!

I was researching a bit, and I figured out some good exercises for six pack, etc…I am not overweight, but I definitely am not skinny….I have about 15-20% Body Fat…so my question….could I get some nice looks with good cardio and core exercises…about 1 hr a day? I am also getting a medicine ball, stability ball, kettlebell, and resistance bands to work with….now, I dont wanna get too buffish like this:

just like the two links above…Thanks. BTW…I have no gym to go to, just bodyweight, and the above listed materials I will be getting….
I also have a stationary bike and a gazelle (the equipment, not the animal).
And I have a lot of room to run if need be…got a whole forest path in my town.
hey…not true, I found many ways to….just seeing what you recommend…about an hour a day of cardio, and core exercises should do it
untrue….many people look like that with exercise….

I’m trying to workout how much work is done when swinging a kettlebell from between the legs to overhead height. The movement could be traced as a semi-circle on a straight line pretty much.
Any formula I could use to calculate the work done?
I’m not too clued up on these things yet.
Am I right in saying that the kinetic energy should equal the potential energy at rest?
As far as I understand it (using a 20kg Kb as an example starting at, let’s say, 30cm above the ground), potential energy would be
m.g.h = (20)(9.8)(.3)
= 58.8 Joules
Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

are there any good chest workouts that you can do with a kettlebell besides presses?

Increase the difficulty of your kettlebell exercises instead of purchasing a larger bell. Warning: This video is for demonstration purposes only.
