Instructions
Stand with a shoulder width stance and toes pointed out slightly. With a kettlebell positioned between your legs, squat down and grasp the sides of the handle with both hands. Keep your arms straight (with a slight bend in the elbows), shoulders tight, head up and core braced. Lift the kettlebell off the floor and stand up straight. Bend back slightly with your hips and swing the kettlebell between your legs, then powerfully extend your hips bringing the kettlebell up to shoulder height. Using the momentum of the movement, bring the kettlebell back down between your legs and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Tips
The power of this exercise is in the hips. Avoid using your arms and upper body to initiate the swing. Keep your core braced and upper back engaged throughout this exercise.
