So my kids really into skateboarding as of the last coupple months.. so old dad had to get back on a board too ofcourse. I rode from about age 5 - 16 every day - literally. Skateboarding was life and eventually left behind all other organized sports to focus all my time on that. So here we are almost 20 years later and probably 60 plus lbs heavier. WHAT A WORKOUT just pushing to the store is. Im not sure whats more tiring the left leg balancing and holding up 200+ lbs or the right from pumping. Either way im getting some insane cardio from this and utilizing ALOT of little stabilization and fast twitch muscles that havnt been touched in ages.

So, can one of you smart dogs explain to me what it is turkish get ups do/work on. Every website I read is vague in explaining them...just that they are wonderful and do everything

I like doing them and they are tough...just no real good idea why or what I'm working on!

Rn, here is an explanation from the website MasterClass:

5 Benefits of Doing Turkish Get-ups
Consider the many benefits of regularly performing Turkish get-ups.

Full-body workout: Turkish get-ups work major muscle groups across your entire body, including your glutes, traps, lower-back muscles, hamstrings, triceps, lats, and calves.
Core strength: You rotate through several positions during Turkish get-ups, engaging your core throughout the entire exercise. By extending the kettlebell above your head during the workout, you put special emphasis on your oblique muscles.
Improved posture: Turkish get-ups activate muscles in your upper body that help improve your posture.
Shoulder stability: By holding a free weight directly above your shoulder during Turkish get-ups, you enhance shoulder mobility and stabilization. Turkish get-ups also strengthen the muscles around your shoulder joint.
Lower-body mobility: Turkish get-ups require hip flexion as you transition between different positions. By engaging your hip flexor muscles, Turkish get-ups are useful warm-ups for other compound exercises that use a hip-hinging movement, like the deadlift.

Also I have found that a lot of KB exercises require a decent co-ordination of breath and body tension.
It took me awhile to really get this.

Basically theyre like a jack of all master of none exercise. They pretty much directly and indirectly hit every muscle of the side your pushing with and that direct / indirect muscle contact will swap when you swap sides if that makes sence. Amazing core work with every movement throughout. Intensity can really change them up too if your doing more slow squeezes or faster explosive movements for example. Im no expert on these though just giving my limited first hand opinions.

Thanks guys. Better than what I've found. I spent a bit on youtube looking for an explanation, failed and figured I would ask here.
