Kettlebell Half-Kneeling Shoulder Press
The half-kneeling press with one kettlebell racked on the back of the forearm; the knee under the pressing arm is down.
How to do it
Setup
Half-kneeling, the knee under the pressing arm down, the bell racked, the free hand on the front knee.
Steps
- Squeeze the glute of the down leg before each press.
- Press the bell overhead until the arm locks over the shoulder.
- Lower it to the rack; change the knee and the arm between sets.
Common mistakes
Leaning away from the bell: keep the ribs stacked over the hips. Front knee drifting inward: keep it over the ankle. Wrist bent back under the bell: knuckles to the ceiling, forearm vertical.
Breathing
Exhale on the press, inhale lowering.
