How to perform it

  1. 1

    Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in front of your thighs.

  2. 2

    Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward at the hips, keeping your back straight.

  3. 3

    Lower the kettlebell towards the ground, allowing it to swing between your legs.

  4. 4

    Quickly extend your hips and knees, using the momentum to swing the kettlebell up to shoulder height.

  5. 5

    As the kettlebell reaches shoulder height, rotate your wrists and catch the kettlebell in the rack position, with your elbow tucked in and the kettlebell resting on your forearm.

  6. 6

    Lower the kettlebell back down to the starting position between your legs, and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
