Book Description

What is the Hip Hinge? How do You Perform it Correctly? Explained in plain English so everyone can understand it. The hip hinge is a fundamental human movement and extremely important in exercise. It is vital because knowing and performing it correctly will prevent injury and will allow you to work a large portion of the posterior chain muscles with one movement. Also, a lot of important exercises—such as the Kettlebell Swing, the traditional Deadlift, Bent-Over Rows and many more—depend on this movement. The hip hinge is essential for everyday knee and back health. It also rewards you with stretches to your hamstrings. This book will cover every intricate detail of the hip hinge movement, explained and broken down in such a way that everyone can understand it; it’s basic but at the same time advanced. This book is part of the Cavemantraining Kettlebell Training series, it builds up from the most basic and fundamental exercise after which you can progress to the Kettlebell Training Fundamentals, and Kettlebell Swing. Due to the Hip Hinge being such a fundamental movement for every-day life, the precursor to popular exercises like the Conventional Deadlift, CrossFit Clean/Snatch, Bent-Over Row and Kettlebell Swing/Snatch, the movement deserves a book of its own, this is it. This book covers common mistakes, how to correct the hip hinge, how to perform the hip hinge, hip hinge variations, what is lifting with the back, and much more. “No one should progress to exercises like the hip hinge deadlift, bent-over row or the kettlebell swing without fully understanding the hip hinge movement.” ~ Anna Junghans (Gym Owner – Gym Elite) All Cavemantraining books: Master The Hip Hinge (currently viewing) On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingMaster The Lunge On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingMaster Kettlebell Grips and Racking On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingKettlebell Training Fundamentals On Amazon, iTunes, or Cavemantraining Contains the kettlebell grips and racking bookMaster The Kettlebell Clean On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingMaster The Kettlebell Press On Amazon or CavemantrainingMaster The Kettlebell Swing On Amazon or CavemantrainingKettlebell Workouts And Challenges 1.0 On Amazon, iTunes, or CavemantrainingFlexibility, Mobility, and Strength Without Yoga On Amazon, iTunes, or Cavemantraining “This publication is a great asset for fitness enthusiasts.
