- Allow the kettlebells to hang straight down in front of your body.
- In one fluid motion, explosively extend your hips and knees while shrugging your shoulders.
- As the kettlebells rise, pull them up towards your shoulders, keeping your elbows high and out to the sides.
- Catch the kettlebells at shoulder height, with your palms facing inward and your elbows pointing forward.
- Lower the kettlebells back down to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
