James - my reason, as a complete novice to the KB, is i just don't like it. i feel like i can FAR more effeciently swing "Russian" style and can keep up a pace and uniformity that way. I can't get a rhythm overhead nor keep uniformity if i'm using, say, a 24kg bell, yet i can do so with a Russian swing with the same weight. I basically don't see the point in my training of incorporating above the head swings. maybe i'm just missing it.
