How to perform

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in each hand. Hinge at the hips, bending knees slightly, lowering torso nearly parallel to the floor. Maintain a straight back and engaged core. Let kettlebells hang at arm’s length. Pull kettlebells towards your ribcage, bending elbows and squeezing shoulder blades. Pause briefly. Slowly lower with control. Repeat.

Tips

Maintain a neutral spine. Engage your core. Focus on back muscle engagement. Avoid rounding shoulders; keep them pulled back and down. Control movement throughout. Align head with spine. Start with lighter weight to ensure proper form.
