Written Instructions
- With the kettlebell in one hand, step back with the leg on the opposite side, keeping your hips behind you and let the kettlebell swing back to gain momentum.
- When returning to the stand-up position, focus on squeezing your glutes and driving your head up tall towards the ceiling as the kettlebell floats up.
- As your shoulder guides the kettlebell towards the ceiling remember to keep your shoulder set down towards your bum and a nice tight grip on the kettle bell.
- Remember to keep your core engaged as you step backwards and let the kettlebell swing back down.
