How to perform it
Step-by-step instructions
- 01Start with the kettlebell in one hand and hinge to hike it back between the legs while keeping the spine long.
- 02Drive the hips forward explosively and guide the bell upward close to the body rather than swinging it away.
- 03As the bell rises, pull the elbow back and then punch the hand through the handle so the bell wraps softly around the wrist.
- 04Receive the kettlebell overhead with the elbow locked, the shoulder active, and the ribs stacked over the pelvis.
- 05Lower through the rack or guide the bell directly into the next backswing, then repeat before changing arms.
