Movement instructions

1
Clean two kettlebells to your shoulders.
2
Squat down a few inches and reverse the motion rapidly. Use the momentum from the legs to drive the kettlebells overhead.
3
Once the kettlebells are locked out, lower the kettlebells to your shoulders and repeat.

Technique guidance

Inhale as the resistance lowers and exhale as you press overhead. Keep the ribs controlled and continue breathing between repetitions.

Arching the lower back or flaring the ribs to move the resistance overhead.
Pressing in an inconsistent path instead of stacking the load over a stable base.
Using momentum or an uncontrolled lowering phase.

Use a stable setup and a load or resistance you can control through a comfortable range.
Stop if you feel sharp pain, dizziness, or feel unwell.
Keep the swing or lowering path clear and use a secure grip you can maintain throughout the set.
