I Did 10,000 Kettlebell Swings in a Month (Worth It?)

In March 2020, I decided to do 10,000 kettlebell swings. That's right: 10,000 swings in one month, all with a 24 kilogram (53 pound) bell. I was partially inspired by Dan John's 10,000 kettlebell swing workout program, which he wrote about nearly a decade ago for T-Nation. Dan's program took 5-6 weeks and incorporated swings into different training sessions, interspersed with other movements. But the only rule for my challenge was that I had to do 10,000 swings in the month of March, in addition to my normal training. That meant over 330 swings per day.
