How to do it

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in one hand with an overhand grip.
  2. Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward at the hips, keeping your back straight and your core engaged.
  3. Pull the kettlebell up towards your chest, keeping your elbow close to your body and squeezing your shoulder blades together.
  4. Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower the kettlebell back down to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides and repeat with the other arm.
