Kettlebell training safety rules

1. Training with kettlebells requires more skill than training with dumbbells. Take your time and master every drill perfectly. Details are very important.
Master every move perfectly with a lighter KB before going for the bulldog (the 88lbs, 40 kg KB is called a bulldog).
2. Always be aware of your surroundings; pay attention for objects, people, kids and pets.
3. If the bell got out from the perfect grove and the KB starts to fall on the wrong side of your body, do not fight it; get out of its way and lead it to the ground. It might happen while practicing Snatches, Bent press, Shoulder press, Turkish get up, Windmill. Keep your calm and park it.
4. Do not forget that every drill begins when you touch the KB and ends up when you place it back on the ground.
5. Keep your mind on your training. Do not chatter and laugh around while training.
6. Keep your hands dry at all times. If you sweat while exercising, stop if you feel your grip gets loosen up.
7. Keep your wrist straight at all times when loaded.
8. Maintain a good posture throughout the training; do not slouch and bring your knees forward too much.
9. You should never train until total failure with a kettlebell.
