Kettlebell Bent Press

1. Start by standing upright with feet shoulder-width apart, holding the kettlebell in one hand at shoulder level, with your arm bent and the kettlebell resting against the back of your wrist.

2. Turn your feet out at a 45-degree angle away from the side holding the kettlebell.

3. Keeping your arm with the kettlebell locked in position, begin to push your hip out to the side, and slowly bend to the opposite side, letting your empty hand trace down your leg.

4. Continue to bend sideways, pushing your hip out until your torso is nearly parallel with the ground. As you bend, simultaneously straighten the arm with the kettlebell to maintain the weight directly above your shoulder.

5. Once you've reached an almost fully bent lateral position with the kettlebell locked out overhead, reverse the movement by tightening your core and driving through your legs to return to the starting position.

6. Finish the repetition by bringing the kettlebell back down to the shoulder before attempting another rep or switching arms.

Make sure to keep your eyes on the kettlebell throughout the movement for balance and stability. Engage your core and always move within a comfortable range of motion to prevent injury. The bent press is a complex lift that requires practice, skill, and good body awareness. It's advisable to start with a light weight to perfect the technique before gradually increasing the weight.
