I was there at the Atomic Athletic Strongman Picnic to pull a fire truck with my hair. Once that was complete it was all fun and games.

I had interviewed Andrew Durniat before (it’s one of the bonus calls you get with The Definitive Guide to Kettlebell Juggling) but this was the first time we got to meet in person. Andrew is excellent in his kettlebell juggling skills (not to mention barbell, stone lock or plate juggling) so we decided to have a faceoff.

If you’re familiar with the basketball game HORSE then you know how this went. One person does a trick then the other tries to replicate it. Back and forth. In the end we didn’t keep score cause we were just having too much fun. Here’s a short clip below.

Kettlebells are not the only weight you can throw around. In this post we’ll cover barbell juggling.

Barbell juggling, like kettlebell juggling, does not involve actually juggling barbells but the spinning, throwing and catching of one barbell. The barbell can be circled around the body in different ways. It can be thrown and caught in several positions like in the crook of the elbows or from hand to hand.

When you get started do it with an empty bar but as you progress you can add weight. Make sure you have a solid pair of collars that would fly off along with the plates!

This video shows my first attempts at barbell juggling.


Barbell Juggling

The best person today, at least to my knowledge, at barbell juggling is strongman Andrew Durniat. In fact, in the interview I did with him, included with The Definitive Guide to Kettlebell Juggling, we discussed what it takes to get started in barbell juggling.
