I was playing around after my Max Effort work the other day and I somehow ended up doing this: Suspended Kettlebell Foam Press. Here’s the link to the youtube vid:
I suspended two 30lb K-bells from bands and used an Elite Box Squat Pad for the foam.
It’s quite odd, about 1/4 of the way up, it feels like someone jumps on the bar.
Give it a shot and let me know what you think.
A little too exotic for my taste.
We have a fiberglass bar at the gym I lift at specifically meant to hang kettlebells with bands on.
We use very light weights (ie: no loaded weight) only one or two kettlebells hanging from bands.
It feels like you’re benching during an earthquake with a bunch of rabid monkeys trying to rip the bar out of your hands.
Even with a normal bar, I’d suggest spotters.

For me as well usually, but, felt like experimenting. Even if you just went with the foam, you’d be in for a treat.
