Bottoms Up Clean From The Hang Position
A 200-characters-or-less explanation of the exercise.
Instructions
- Start by standing tall with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Hold a kettlebell in your hand and let it hang between your legs.
- Bend slightly at the hips and knees, then explosively pull the kettlebell upwards keeping it close to your body.
- At the top, flip your wrist so the bottom of the kettlebell faces upwards before catching it in a half-squat position.
- Stand tall to complete the movement and lower the kettlebell for the next rep.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Rounding the back during the lift.
- Using the arms to pull instead of the hips to thrust.
- Letting the kettlebell swing too far in front or behind the body.
- Not keeping the core engaged to stabilize the movement.
