Kettlebell Box Squat
The box squat with a kettlebell held by the horns at the chest; the box sets the depth and the bell keeps the torso upright.
How to do it
Setup
Kettlebell by the horns at the chest, elbows down, a box just behind the heels.
Steps
- Sit back and down until the hips touch the box.
- Keep the bell against the chest.
- Stand up tall, squeezing the glutes.
Common mistakes
Bell pulling you forward: hold it close, elbows under it. Relaxing on the box: stay tight through the touch. Heels lifting as you sit: push the hips further back.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
