Muscles Worked
Shoulders, back, hips, glutes, inner thighs, quads, hamstrings and abdominals.
Training Technique
Start by placing feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, and place the kettlebell on the floor between your feet. Grab the kettlebell with both hands with thighs nearly parallel to the floor. With the strength coming from the legs immediately stand back up swinging the kettlebell out and up until it's at shoulder height, while keeping your arms straight. As the kettlebell begins to arc back down, bend your knees and squat, swinging the kettlebell between your legs. That's 1 rep; continue swinging for 10-20.
