Instructions

- Bend the knee on the same side as the kettlebell, keeping the foot flat.
- Use your free hand for support, and slowly sit up by rolling onto your opposite forearm.
- Lift your hips off the ground and slide your straight leg back into a kneeling position.
- Push through your back foot to bring your legs into a squat, then stand up.
