Instructions
1. Choose a pair of kettlebells with an appropriate weight. Start with a lighter weight to master the form before progressing to heavier kettlebells.
2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, maintaining a slight bend in your knees.
3. Hold a kettlebell in each hand with an overhand grip, arms extended and palms facing up, as if you are carrying a tray. Keep your elbows slightly bent throughout the movement.
4. With control, raise the kettlebells in a wide arc away from your body, keeping your arms in line with your shoulders and maintaining the slight bend in your elbows. Stop once your hands reach shoulder level or slightly higher.
5. Squeeze your chest muscles at the top of the movement for a second.
6. Slowly lower the kettlebells back down to the starting position in the same wide arc, keeping the movement controlled and your torso stationary.
7. Aim to perform 8-15 repetitions per set and complete 3-5 sets, resting for 60-90 seconds between sets.
Remember to keep the movement controlled and avoid using momentum to raise the weights. Adjust the weight of the kettlebells if the exercise is too easy or too difficult. Always keep your core engaged and back straight to prevent injury.
