Exercise Description

Clean two kettlebells to your shoulders. Press the kettlebells up and out. As the kettlebells pass your head, lean into the weights so that the kettlebells are racked behind your head.

Performance Tips

• Try holding your breath as you press the kettlebells (Caution: Make sure to clear this with your doctor if you have high blood pressure or any heart problems).

• Look straight ahead (not up or down) as you press and lower the kettlebells.

• Flex your lats as hard as possible before pressing the kettlebells for added stability and power.

• As you lower the kettlebells back to the starting position, actively pull them down with your lats as if you are doing a lat pull-down or chin up.

• Contract your abs and glutes as hard as possible as you press the kettlebells for added stability and power

• Crush the kettlebell handles as hard as possible for increased strength

• Pull your shoulders down before each repetition
