This is a great exercise for your back that not only targets the rotator cuff and neck muscles, but also engages your upper back.

Kettlebell swings require a certain amount of balance and control to perform properly, so be sure you are warmed-up before you start. We suggest you warm up with a few minutes of light jumping rope. Back and neck rotation strengthens the cervical and major vertebrae of the spine, which then allows other exercises to be performed in the proper alignment.

This helps increase the flexibility of the upper back and neck, which decreases the chance of developing a stiff upper back and neck. This exercise is one of the best exercises for improving muscle tone and increasing the volume of your back muscles. When you perform this exercise in the proper alignment, you help improve the stability and rotation of your spine and pelvis to perform other exercises at an optimal level as well.
