single-arm kettlebell push press

The single-arm kettlebell push-press is a popular kettlebell movement that involves performing a press with help from the muscles of the lower body. It is preceded by a clean at the start of each set, and optionally you can perform a clean between each rep. It can be trained in traditional strength or muscle-building rep ranges, in circuit or fat-loss training, or as part of a larger kettlebell combination or complex.

SINGLE-ARM KETTLEBELL PUSH PRESS BENEFITS:
  • Momentum from the legs powers the weight through the toughest part of the press
  • Allows you to press more weight than a strict military press
  • Full-body training that challenges the lower body as well as the shoulders, arms, back, and core
  • Perfect for HITT or cardio based circuit training
