Kettlebell Double Push Press

Setup

1. 01Clean two kettlebells to the rack position at the shoulders.
2. 02Stand with feet hip width apart and weight over mid foot.
3. 03Rest the bells on the forearms with elbows connected to the ribs.
4. 04Brace the trunk before every rep.

Execution

1. 01Dip by bending the knees a few inches while keeping the torso vertical.
2. 02Drive hard through the floor and extend the hips and knees.
3. 03Use the momentum to press both bells to a locked out overhead position.
4. 04Absorb the bells back into the rack with a slight knee bend.

Checkpoints

• -The dip is straight down, not a forward hip hinge.
• -The leg drive transfers before the arms take over.
• -Both bells lock out together with wrists neutral.
• -The rack is fully re-set between reps.

Common mistakes

• -Dipping too deep and turning the rep into a slow squat press.
• -Letting the elbows disconnect from the body during the dip.
• -Catching the bells with bent wrists.
• -Leaning back instead of finishing the lockout overhead.
