Training the Three Pulls

A lot of what you do with kettlebells is learning to manage transitions - not the kettlebell.  Transitions are when you go from pulling to pushing, tightening to relaxing, inhaling to eshaling, etc.  How efficiently and how timely you manage the transition will determine how hard you work and how smooth the technique appears.  The following video clip (shot during the Kettlebells For Warriors event in Jacksonville, FL) shows a demonstration of the Swing, High Pull, and Snatch combination.  When training this combination you need to be aware of how different the pulls are, how the timing is affected by the different pulls, and how your tension management is different for each.
