Rule Text by Organization

IKSFA International Kettlebell Sport & Fitness Academy

Three warnings of the same violation type results in disqualification and the set is stopped. However, it is possible to accrue violations of different types without disqualification — mixing violation types does not trigger automatic disqualification. For example, 1 warning for touching the bell with free hand + 1 warning for extra swing + 1 warning for resting on shoulders does not equal disqualification.
