Our medical Academy has many sport sections. One of them is kettlebell lifting. I joined this section. My coach is Fedor Mironov. I would like to talk about this sport. Kettlebell sport.
That’s what this is all about.
This blog is dedicated to bringing you good, substantiated information on kettlebell lifting from true authorities.
Why achyball?
The kettlebell is fondly nicknamed ‘achyball’ due to its amazing capacity to cause extreme discomfort. This is particularly true when the kettlebell is used for what it’s best adapted to: kettlebell sport.
And what is kettlebell sport? Traditionally, kettlebell sport (also known as Girevoy sport) is 10 min sets of kettlebell jerks, snatches or long cycle clean and jerk. You can find a brief article on the history of kettlebell sport here.
For men, most competitions have biathlon (10 mins double jerks followed usually at least 30 mins laster by 10 mins snatches) and long cycle (double bells) events. For women, there may be snatch only events or biathlon and long cycle events, at this stage all women’s events are carried out with single bells. In competition sets the bells must not be put down, and for single handed lifts only one hand change is permitted.
Kettlebell sport also encompasses power juggling and non-traditional events such as extra long sets (anywhere from 20 mins to 24 hours), max chair presses and more recently a kettlebell strongman/woman competition and ranking system has been introduced in the US.
The principles of kettlebell sport lifting are principles that should be applied to all kettlebell lifting.
