Kettlebell Swing Clean-Grip Front Squat Overhead Press
The swing-to-front-squat complex with an overhead press added: a kettlebell in each hand, both pressed up after each stand.
How to do it
Setup
Hinged over the bells, stance wider than the hips, a handle in each hand.
Steps
- Swing both bells back and snap the hips to float them up.
- Catch them at the chest and front squat.
- Stand and press both bells overhead.
- Lower them to the chest, then into the next swing.
Common mistakes
Pressing before standing: finish the squat, then press. Arching the back under the overhead bells: brace the ribs down. Dropping the bells from overhead into the swing: bring them to the chest first.
Breathing
Exhale on the swing, on the stand and on the press.
