The Two-Arm Kettlebell Military Press primarily works the shoulders, with the triceps supporting the movement. It is a strength movement performed with kettlebells.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Clean two kettlebells to your shoulders. Clean the kettlebells to your shoulders by extending through the legs and hips as you swing the kettlebells towards your shoulders. Rotate your wrists as you do so, so that the palms face forward.
Press the kettlebells up and out. As the kettlebells pass your head, lean into the weights so that the kettlebells are racked behind your head. Make sure to contract your lats, butt, and stomach for added stability.
Technique guidance
Inhale as the resistance lowers and exhale as you press overhead. Keep the ribs controlled and continue breathing between repetitions.
General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same kettlebells setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Two-Arm Kettlebell Military Press sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
