How to do it
Plant the front foot flat and grip the floor with your toes for stability.
- 1
Stand with one foot slightly in front of the other, kettlebell in front of the front foot.
- 2
Shift your weight onto the front leg, with the back leg acting as a kickstand.
- 3
Hinge at the hips and lower the kettlebell towards the ground, keeping the back straight.
- 4
Squeeze the glutes of the working leg to return to the starting position.
- 5
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching legs.
Expert tip
Focus on keeping your hips square to the ground to engage the working leg's glutes and hamstrings effectively.
