Step by step
- Stand with feet hip-width apart and hold a kettlebell with both hands in front of your thighs.
- Pull your shoulder blades back and brace your core to lock the spine in a neutral position.
- Push your hips back and let the kettlebell travel down the front of your legs with a slight knee bend.
- Lower the bell until you feel a deep stretch in the hamstrings, usually around mid-shin.
- Drive your hips forward to stand back up, keeping the kettlebell close to your body the whole way.
- Squeeze your glutes hard at the top and reset your brace before the next rep.
