Movement instructions

1
Lie on your back on the floor and press a kettlebell to the top position by extending the elbow. Bend the knee on the same side as the kettlebell.
2
Keeping the kettlebell locked out at all times, pivot to the opposite side and use your non- working arm to assist you in driving forward to the lunge position. Using your free hand, push yourself to a seated position, then progressing to one knee.
3
While looking up at the kettlebell, slowly stand up. Reverse the motion back to the starting position and repeat.

Technique guidance

Inhale as you lower under control and exhale as you drive back to a stable position. Keep the breath smooth throughout the set.

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.
