Kettlebell Incline Pullover

Kettlebell Incline Pullover

- Adjustable bench (set to an incline)
1. Set Up the Equipment:
- Adjust the bench to a comfortable incline. A 30 to 45-degree angle works well.

2. Position Yourself:
- Sit on the bench with your back against it. Keep your feet flat on the floor.
- Lean back slightly, ensuring your shoulder blades are supported by the bench.

3. Grip the Kettlebell:
- With both hands, grasp the handle of the kettlebell.
- Hold the kettlebell above your chest, arms extended upwards. Your palms should face each other.

4. Start the Movement:
- Slowly lower the kettlebell back and over your head in an arc. Keep your elbows slightly bent throughout the movement.
- Lower it until you feel a stretch in your chest and lats.

5. Return to Start Position:
- Engage your core and pull the kettlebell back to the starting position above your chest.
- Focus on using your lats and chest muscles to lift the weight.

6. Repetitions:
- Aim for 8 to 12 repetitions for 2 to 3 sets, resting for about 60 seconds between sets.

Tips

- Always maintain a controlled motion to prevent injury.
- Focus on your breathing: inhale as you lower the kettlebell and exhale as you lift it back up.
- Adjust the weight of the kettlebell as needed to ensure you can perform the exercise with proper form.
