They Don't like the Turkish Getup... But What about This?

- In short, the Turkish getup doesn't have to have the kettlebell at arm's length.
IMO I think it's much better with the weight close to the body
I've had many combat athletes and tactical users message me and say they love using heavy sandbags or other weights close to the body for doing Turkish get-ups
Modifying the limiting factor of the shoulder stability {which is also why it's. a great movement anyway)
you can apply load to different areas of the body.
sandbags are great for this

traditional gym goers with that kind of size usually aren't as explosive! guess that's one of the benefits of using KBs even though they are allegedly "poor at building size"?
Yes and I usually handle 2x88lbs 176lbs overhead for loads of my work. That's a lots of weight for loads of exercises.
*SF coaches hate this guy! See this one little trick!* just joking...or am I not?
What comes to my mind is how you "get up" with a baby in your hand. You are not locking it above your head but you keep it tight to your body. That is a real life movement and something I can actually call "functional movement", whatever it means.
ABSOLUTELY.
This is great info. I've always appreciated how non-dogmatic you are.
I appreciate that!
Most of the guys who dont like tgu's look like they dont even training or cant move their hand above hand anyway. Saw today zercher axl bar get up. Have to try.
Great variation of many. all the best Joe
Outstanding!
This will allow me to work around some movement limitations.
More importantly, it opens up my thinking.
Thanks so much!
Exactly . Sticking to one single way limits so much. Now you can party
Great advice - always a fan of the original recipe with a KB, but currently doing a lot of sandbag getups and loving the extra load on my legs and core.
Awesome video. The sandbag variation of the get up is one of my favorites.
So beneficial
This was so revelatory. Thanks!
Always a good video man. Thanks Joe
Thanks 👍
That was an awesome tutorial!!!
Allot of great ideas!!
It’s appreciated!!
Glad you liked it!!
Excellent tip, thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you for the insightful ideas.
Glad it was helpful!
I have enjoyed splitting the movement in half for higher rep sets...the first half sit up section...the lunge section second half. Allows you to move safely and not so slowly
Brilliant - thank you. They want to replace my right shoulder, but I can still press and other movements, I just cant TGU pivot to kneeling without it sounding like a sodden dowel squealing in my shoulder capsule.
Ahh sorry to hear. Hope it helps out
I very rarely comment, but I've just done a set each side holding a small dumbbell. I was actually quite gassed and definitely going to include this as a finisher in all workouts now, thanks 👍
There we go.
That makes so much more sense
Thanks I'm anti dogma in kettlebell training. Please share if you can
I stumbled on the sandbag getup a while ago. It's friggin' great. 150lbs on your shoulder is a real challenge. I've heard some BJJ guys argue that "Well, you never get up that way in BJJ, so it's pointless" and that feels an awful lot like they're just stuck in an overly dogmatic mindset.
And I've heard the exact opposite from so many high level belts in BJJ as well.
@@kettlebellmusclegain Yuuuup. I've shown it to wrestling coaches and it was like a lightbulb went off behind their eyes. The usefulness was immediately apparent to them.
@Voidrunner01 it's apparent to anyone that doesn't let their ego ruin beneficial things.
One of my favorite things to do during the get up is to press the kettlebell at certain positions of the movement to see how my body reacts and what the hardest positions are.
What would you say ate benefits are a regular tgu vs the variation you shown in this video?
Anytime you change where the load is you change how it feels and what muscle need to work more or less.
Yes that's great
Hey Joe! I started Double Precision KB workout and wow it is amazing, no joke. I'm a beginner with kettlebells and it is very surprising how good the workouts feel and make you work even with lighter weight. I'm excited, in 1 year I can become a beast, seriously.
I want to add bodyweight exercises pull ups, chin ups, push ups, dips and squats. Do you have a recommendation how I should do it? 2x per week on off days or maybe after each KB day I do 1 exercise or combine 3 of them?
Thanks Joe, you are an expert.
You can do either. I do pullups and dips and time I pass my station. Sometimes once a daybor two sometimes literally a whole workout based on them
@@kettlebellmusclegain Thanks, I will start slowly implementing bodyweight exercises.
New subscriber... my goal is all round athleticism, speed power strength endurance etc, i train mma, and lifted weights over 15 yrs, would you say theres a limit to how heavy the kettlebells you should use? I use mostly doube 32kgs, i can do a lot of reps on all exercises, is there a limit or diminishing returns going heaver than double 48kg for example? I can do a few reos on a few exercises with double 48s, is the goal to keep getting heavier bells or is it unrealistic?
Personally I don't think it's beneficial for using much heavier. There are other tools if you want. Keep with what KB is great at. Endurance, mobility, speed and full rom strength. 2x32 and 2x40kg are my favorites
@kettlebellmusclegain yh, i feel the same after a certain weight you can only do 1-2 reps which isn't really practical and become more of a door stop and hardly use em, just wanting confirmation from someone more experienced in kettlebells than me, thanks for the reply 👍
TGUs are not a favourite of mine. I just find finagling with my knees so difficult that tI’ve given up - too difficult at my age.
Bottom floor portion would be beneficial .the rest, skip.
Looks like a KMG getup to me
That's the goal
