Kneeling Kettlebell Press
How to Do Kneeling Kettlebell Press
- Using one arm, bring the kettlebell up towards your shoulder so that your arm is in the hammer-holding position. (Aim for the position of the kettlebell to be pointing upward, and upside down).
- Take one lunge step forward and lower your body down to the ground. Find a grounded position in which you can maintain balance.
- Using your shoulder and chest strength, drive the kettlebell upwards; imagine a straight line running from the ceiling through the kettle bell and to the floor. Trace this line up.
- Once in a fully extended position, slowly lower the kettlebell back down to the starting position following that same traceable line.
