I cringe so hard every time I see people doing all these erratic, jerky kettleball routines

Kettlebell swings are a perfectly safe exercise as long as you spend some time to work on your form. That said, I also don't understand why the ever living fuck you'd do one hundred reps for? There is no fucking way you're maintaining form for all one hundred of those consecutively.

Seems designed to ruin your back. Why not a safe lat pull-down?
