Instructions

- A flat, stable surface (like a gym mat or floor)

Positioning:
1. Lie down on your back on the floor with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground.
2. Hold a kettlebell in each hand, with your arms bent at a 90-degree angle. Your elbows should be close to your body, and your palms facing each other.
3. Position the kettlebells above your chest, ensuring that they are stable and that your grip is firm.

Movement Instructions:
1. Starting Position: Begin with the kettlebells at shoulder level. Your upper arms should be slightly perpendicular to the ground.
2. Press Up: Press both kettlebells upward until your arms are fully extended above your chest. Keep your core engaged and maintain a straight line from your shoulders to your hips.
3. Lower Down: Slowly lower the kettlebells back down to the starting position, ensuring that you control the movement and do not let the weights drop abruptly.
4. Breathing: Exhale as you press the kettlebells up and inhale as you bring them back down.
5. Repetitions: Aim for 8-12 repetitions, depending on your fitness level. Take a short break and repeat for 2-3 sets.

Tips for Beginners:
- Start with lighter weights to ensure you maintain proper form.
- Keep your movements slow and controlled to avoid injury.
- If necessary, you can perform the exercise with one kettlebell at a time for added stability and focus.
