I don't disagree with any of the negative sentiment. I agree it's not the best stuff for instruction or training.
But on the positive side...
I like seeing the show-off-y stuff on social media because it's inspiring and interesting. I think of these more as "performance" than "training."
And I love the kettlebell flows such as the video linked above -- it's creative and beautiful, like a dance. Do dancers "train"? Probably not in the sense that we're used to, but they certainly practice, and we can relate to that. Flows, chains, and complexes really focus the mind and body. So I would think of these more of "practice" than "training." And maybe more toward performance there as well, like with this synchronized routine, like synchonized swimming. Neat stuff.
