Maybe doing them for a "cardio" addition to your kettlebell session? I am still doing the two hand swings, and my cardio is challenged every session. My plan is to keep doing them, on occasion, when I go to the one hand swings here in a couple months.
To add to that, while I went against the book and did mostly 2 handed swings with the 40 for a few months before figuring out how to do the 100 swings wholly 1 handed, I packed on some belly flab at the front and sides. Now that I'm doing the swings 1 handed, the belly flab is gone - my midriff is all toned up nice.
I agree with the book: once you get to doing the swings one handed "it is the only version you'll ever need."
I don't see what I'll be accomplishing by doing swings 2 handed any more - maybe just once in a while if I'm feeling really knackered.
