This is the best definition I have seen. So I stole it from the blogs. Thank you Mr. Walsh.
"Hard-Style" chooses power over effeciency and chooses techniques proven to be most effective for max force application. It uses maximal accelaration in quick lifts and maximal tension in the slow lifts. It is the practice of the skill of compression, maximizing tension in the muscles, compressing the joints, compressing the breath and focusing the body's "scattered" energy into a single directed effort. We work to eliminate power leakages by improving the kinetic linkage from the ground up. We work to master the ability to tense and relax when appropriate (tense-loose-tense). We have an internal focus. The kettlebell is a tool to teach the skill of body mastery.
So having said that...we work and train. It is not a work-out. That happens along the way. Practice is the objective. Lots and lots of practice.
The photo? It has nothing to do with kettlebells and everything to do with America. I took this picture at the FLT 93 Memorial.
