Move to Double Bell Lifts of Kettlebell Sport!
Congrats! You have completed Level 1 of Kettlebell Sport and now you are ready to move to double bell lifts! We will be covering double bell technique for Jerk and Long Cycle. But we will also review Snatch to keep fine tuning our movement!
This course is meant to help get comfortable around double competition kettlebells and spend time honing in technique, either to set you up to start training for your first competition, or just to pick up some new skills to add to your fitness and movement library. During the 3 weeks, build a foundation of strength and endurance to be able to complete Sport specific lifts.
Participants will learn double bell lifts and work to complete a modified Triathlon at the end of the 3 weeks. The Triathlon will consist of completing 2 minutes of each of the following lifts: Double Jerk, Snatch and Double Long Cycle.
Along with learning the lifts, participants will also receive guidance on best practices for mobility and supplemental conditioning to help maximize your ability to move well. Students will also receive homework programming to do on their own time an additional day of the week to practice the lifts and build on what they have learned in class.
Who is this for?
Those who have completed Level 1, or experience with hardstyle kettlebell but have never tried Sport.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED
A few things that will help you get started:
A device that can run Zoom and an internet connection
A mat, towel or padding to be able to put your bell on to protect the floor
A pair of competition kettlebells or hardstyle kettlebells of the same weight (are you in the Seattle, WA area and in need of a kettlebell? I may be able to loan you some if I still have one available, just ask!)
On the left: a traditional hardstyle kettlebell, usually made of cast iron. As the weight goes up, the handles and bells get larger. On the right, a competition style kettlebell which are usually steel, keep the shape of the bell and handle the same as the weight of the bell goes up. This helps with technique and grip training, so that you can keep working on your skills without having to change how you hold the bell when you advance.
Optional:
Chalk (for your hands and kettlebell)
Wrist protection (like wristguards or wrist wraps)
*Make sure you have at least a 4’x 4’ space to lift with at least 2’ of clearance above you when your arm is in an overhead position.
