The kettlebell is a unique tool for working out. It requires the use of multiple muscle groups throughout the body. While it might not seem obvious, when perform a kettlebell movement, the body has to conscript many parts of the body to keep itself "safe".

 When you think about it, many of the movements are movements that exert an external force away from the body causing the kettlebell to gain inertia away from the body. Therefore, the body produces the force to move the weight away from itself and produces the force to stop the weight from moving away from it.

This is why training with kettlebells is a must for anyone looking to keep their body resilient through the ages. The dynamics required to perform the movements correctly with proper form are an important piece of physical.

We have listed an injury that this exercise can help with. However, you should use this exercise after you have built up the stability and movement muscles required to perform this exercise. That would most likely mean being able to perform the following exercises perfectly, i.e. total control through the movement, while maintaining stability around the the shoulder joint.

When we state an injury we are specifically talking about an exercise that can speed up recovery, which almost always means a exercise/movement that targets the stability of a joint to perform a workout. 

Once you can complete these workouts with ease, no pain, and proper form, then you would start to perform this exercise.  

Remember, the "life goal" is to be able to lift just as heavy now as when you are 85, 95, or 110 years old.
