Mitch Hooper Kettlebell Pronation Medley


Recommended Posts

Posted

Stellar Steve, I have done that 32 KG off the floor handful of times - couple vids on my KB thread. At US Nationals '24, I had a great moment of destroying a 32 KG (70 LB) Kettlebell Pronation Wrist flip off a slick platform. Pronation is the weakest of the 6 wrist areas for me, but it was a great way to end pronation, and the spectator's reaction was priceless! Mike Gentile came up to me afterwards and congratulated me on that very feat in the medley.

I've seen all those 32kg kettlebell pronation feats of yours. I posted on that video: "@makula5543 has you beat".

It is a challenging exercise, and 32 KG is a good number off the floor. Steelbender great Batraz T. has done 40 KG - which is absurd strength- in his prime.

My pronation is strong and getting stronger. I might be shooting myself in the foot but I think I could do 40kg right now. Depending on the shape of the bell of course. Competition bells are probably harder due to their size and added leverage. I don’t have any heavier bells though. Will have to look up a gym in order to find some heavier ones.

That is crazy supination strength!

Sorry for the delay responding to this, Michael. I have been backpacking and climbing in the Wind River Mountains since last Thursday.
