Performance Tips
• Look at the kettlebell during the entire duration of the windmill.
• Focus on pushing your butt out to the side as if you are trying to sit down.
• Breathe in as you lower yourself to the floor and out slowly as you return to the starting position.
• Keep the reps between one and five. Windmills require a great deal of concentration.
• Do not force the range of motion. Stay within your limits and gradually increase the range of motion.

Keep the non-working arm behind your back and turn your feet out at a forty-five degree angle from the arm with the kettlebell. Lower yourself as far as possible. Pause for a second and reverse the motion back to the starting position.
