Dan John on Building Buns and Guns

New eBook: Introduction to Kettlebells – Just $1 on Amazon!

Recently, I wrote a short (read: 30 pages) eBook called Introduction to Kettlebells, which is now available on Amazon for a whopping — brace yourself! — $1.

You can snag it here ==> https://amzn.to/2HgwJgO

Short story: Introduction to Kettlebells is a quick and dirty reference guide to the core single kettlebell techniques — exercises like the swing, snatch, clean, get up, squat, etc — and a simple, 7-day training cycle for getting strong and tough.

Inside the eBook are instructional pointers, pictures of each technique, and links to video tutorials. Finally, a simple and straightforward collection of workouts for improving general physical preparedness with just one kettlebell.

While this eBook is aimed at beginners, I think even veterans will get something out of it, since it’s always good to brush up on technique and return to basics.

  2. I am a trainer and have had my clients do hip thrusts. They often say it hurts their neck. I get that they need to use their transverse abs. But they often have a hard time with that . Is there a cue that works well to help with neck pain during hip thrusts?

    • Hi Cynthia,

      You might want to emphasize the cue of “packing the chin” which can help with stability. The idea is a person should try to give themselves a double chin. Flattering, I know, but it does often seem to make a difference.
