Dr. Hymann sees kettlebell http://www.russiankettlebell.com/ workouts as a perfect way to help his patients overcome back pain, in particular. According to Dr. Hymann, A lot of people are terrified at the idea of getting down into a squat because theyve been conditioned to avoid it. So first I teach them to do the motion correctly, with no weight, and then I teach them to squat down and pick up the kettlebell.
From there they gain confidence that they can actually do some resistance exercises. That seems to get them in the habit of using their pelvis and low back correctly, so they can gain strength in their spines. It works very, very well, and a lot of them end up getting hooked and using kettlebells. I think that all of the kettlebell exercises, if done correctly, are very safe and effective for people who want to strengthen their backs."
Dr. Hymann uses kettlebells to strengthen and heal Ironman competitors: They love kettlebells because its a way they can train without bulking up or being stuck in a gym."
Dr. Hymann believes that one of the most important advantages of kettlebells is that they get his patients away from using machines: I hate machines! I absolutely despise them. I rail against them in my practice and in the newsletter that I send out to patients. I encourage them to avoid machines like the plague, because you get locked into such unnatural ranges of motion and they dont require you to stabilize yourself in any meaningful way.
Im more a fan of free weights in general, including the kettlebell. So I try to orient people in that direction because you can have kettlebells in your home, and you dont need a whole gym in your basement to get the work done."
