Kettlebell Clean and Press
Clean the bell to the rack, then press it overhead without leaning back; lower and repeat.
How to do it
Setup
Bell between the feet, hinge, flat back.
Steps
- Clean the bell to the rack with the hip drive.
- Press strictly overhead, ribs down.
- Lower to the rack, then to the floor; switch arms.
Common mistakes
Pressing before the rack settles: clean, breathe, then press. Lean-back press: glutes tight, ribs down. Loud catches: the clean stays tight and quiet.
Breathing
Exhale on the clean and again on the press.
