How to do it
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in each hand at arm's length in front of your thighs.
- Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward at the hips, keeping your back flat and chest up.
- In one explosive motion, extend your hips, knees, and ankles, and simultaneously pull the kettlebells up towards your shoulders.
- As the kettlebells reach shoulder level, rotate your wrists and punch the kettlebells overhead, fully extending your arms.
- Lower the kettlebells back down to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
