How to do it
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in one hand between your legs.
- Bend your knees slightly and hinge at the hips, lowering the kettlebell towards the ground.
- Explosively extend your hips and knees, using the momentum to swing the kettlebell up towards your shoulder.
- As the kettlebell reaches shoulder height, rotate your hand and punch it straight up overhead, fully extending your arm.
- Lower the kettlebell back down between your legs and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
