Kettlebell Exercises
How to do kettlebell exercises, then kettlebell workouts that use each move.
- Kettlebell Swing29
Kettlebell swing form is a hip hinge practice — not a squat, not a front raise. Hike, load the hips, snap forward, float the bell to chest height. Arms are a rope. Film a side view if the hinge feels fuzzy.
- Kettlebell Goblet Squat16
How to do a kettlebell goblet squat. Hold the kettlebell at your chest and squat with an upright torso.
- Kettlebell Press22
Kettlebell press form is rack to lockout — not a push press unless the workout names it. Quiet rack, vertical forearm, stacked wrist, then press straight up. Film a front or side view if the path drifts.
- Kettlebell Row24
Kettlebell row form is a hinged horizontal pull — elbow to hip, long spine, not a shrug. Own the hinge position, then pull. Film a side view if the back rounds or the shoulder climbs.
- Kettlebell Clean8
How to do a kettlebell clean. Bring the kettlebell from a hike to the rack position on your forearm.
- Kettlebell Lunge11
Kettlebell lunge form is a split-stance lower — step, bend both knees quietly, drive through the front heel. Hold the bell still in goblet, suitcase, or rack. Not a forward lean into the knee.
- Kettlebell Push-Up12
How to do a kettlebell push-up. Do a push-up on the floor or on the kettlebells, keeping your body in a straight line.
- Kettlebell March3
How to do a kettlebell march. Hold a kettlebell and march in place with tall posture. This is a loaded carry done without walking.
- Kettlebell Around the World1
Kettlebell around the world form is a horizontal circle at belt height — hips quiet, handoffs smooth, equal both directions. Grip and anti-rotation filler. Not a halo around the head.
- Kettlebell Deadlift9
Kettlebell deadlift form is a hip hinge with a long spine — pick the bell up from the floor, stand tall, set it down the same way. Not a squat. Own this before you chase swing volume.
- Kettlebell Thruster5
Kettlebell thruster form is one continuous drive — squat, then press overhead as the hips lock. Goblet or rack hold. Not a paused squat plus a separate press unless the workout says so.
- Kettlebell Snatch7
Kettlebell snatch form is the swing hike taken overhead — high-pull, punch, bell rolls onto the forearm at lockout. Hips do the work. Not a muscle curl or a yank with the arm.
- Kettlebell Turkish Get-Up2
How to do a Turkish get-up with a kettlebell — step by step. Stand up from the floor while keeping the bell locked out overhead. Eyes on the bell the whole time. Slow practice, not a race.
- Kettlebell Halo4
Kettlebell halo form is a shoulder circle around the head — neck still, ribs down. Horns grip, close path, equal both directions. Not a shrug, not arm circles, not around-the-world at the waist.
- Kettlebell Windmill2
How to do a kettlebell windmill. Hold a kettlebell overhead and hinge to the opposite side while keeping the loaded arm vertical.
- Kettlebell Figure 81
How to do a kettlebell figure 8. Pass the kettlebell through and around your legs in a figure-8 pattern while holding a hip hinge.
- Kettlebell Renegade Row1
Renegade row kettlebell form is a plank pull — row one side, hips still, shoulders packed. Classic setup uses two bells; knee-down or single-bell are regressions when the plank twists. Film a side or top view if the hips spin.
