Day 57: Swings
I really, really love swings. Hard not to program them everyday. It is an amazing movement with numerous applications and benefits. My favorite load is the kettlebell without a doubt, but dumbbells work, too. Anything with a handle - like a ruck (backpack), small sandbag, or….unloaded and done “naked.” {see below}
