American kettlebell swings are a variation of Russian kettlebell swings that involve swinging the weight above your head instead of stopping at shoulder height. This exercise engages major muscle groups, including the arms, shoulders, core, and posterior chain. It is effective at strengthening muscles, increasing heart rate, and can be adapted for strength or cardio training.

Variations include single-arm swings and using two weights.
