How to do it

Maintain straight wrists throughout the entire movement.

  1. 1

    Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell by the handle with both hands behind your head, elbows bent.

    Extend your arms to raise the kettlebell overhead, keeping your elbows stationary.

  3. 3

    Lower the kettlebell back to the starting position behind your head.

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your elbows pointing forward and avoid flaring them out to the sides. This will help maintain focus on the triceps muscles.
