Instructions

Select an appropriate weight for the kettlebell that will challenge you while allowing you to perform the exercise with proper form.

Adjust an incline bench to an angle between 30 to 45 degrees.

Sit down on the bench with your back firmly against the bench pad.

Hold the kettlebell in one hand with a firm grip, resting it against your shoulder. Make sure your palm is facing inward towards your centerline (neutral grip).

Press the kettlebell upward until your arm is fully extended above. Keep your wrist straight and the kettlebell balanced.

Lower the kettlebell slowly back to the starting position at your shoulder.

Repeat the prescribed number of repetitions with one arm. Then switch to the other arm and perform the same number of repetitions.

Focus on maintaining control of the kettlebell throughout the movement, and avoid using momentum to lift the weight.

Remember to breathe out as you push the kettlebell upwards and breathe in as you bring it back down.

Ensure the kettlebell is securely gripped to prevent it from slipping during the press.

Start with a lighter weight to get used to the movement before attempting to use heavier kettlebells.

Keep your movements controlled and deliberate to reduce the risk of injury.

If using very heavy weights, have a spotter nearby for safety.

Stop the exercise if you feel any pain or discomfort that is not typical muscle fatigue.
