Kettlebell One-Arm Bench Press
The one-arm kettlebell press on a bench, the bell riding the back of the forearm; the bench lets the elbow sink below the torso.
How to do it
Setup
Flat bench, the bell racked on the forearm at the chest, knuckles up.
Steps
- Drive the bell up until the arm locks over the chest.
- Lower it to the side of the chest, elbow about 45° from the body.
- Finish the set, then switch arms.
Common mistakes
Wrist bending back under the bell: knuckles up. Rolling toward the working side: shoulders flat on the bench. Elbow dropping far below the bench: stop at a comfortable stretch.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale on the press.
