How to perform

1. 1

   Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in front of your chest with both hands, palms facing each other.

   Lower into a squat position by bending your knees and pushing your hips back, keeping your chest up and your back straight.

3. 3

   As you reach the bottom of the squat, explosively drive through your heels to stand up, simultaneously pressing the kettlebell overhead.

4. 4

   Lock out your arms at the top of the movement, fully extending your elbows.

5. 5

   Lower the kettlebell back to the starting position by reversing the movement, bending your elbows and lowering the weight back to your chest.

6. 6

   Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
