Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift High Pull
From a wide sumo stance, lift the kettlebell from the floor and pull it to chin level, elbows above the wrists.
How to do it
Setup
Wide sumo stance, toes out, kettlebell on the floor between the feet; grip with both hands, back flat.
Steps
- Stand up by driving the hips through.
- As the hips finish, pull the bell to chin height, elbows above the wrists.
- Lower the bell along the same path back to the floor.
Common mistakes
Arms pulling before the hips finish: legs first, arms after. Elbows below the wrists at the top: lead with the elbows. Rounding the back at the floor: re-set the flat back each rep.
Breathing
Inhale at the bottom, exhale through the pull.
