One Arm Kettlebell Split Jerk
A dynamic exercise focusing on explosive power and stability.
Instructions
- Begin in a standing position with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in one hand.
- Perform a shallow dip by bending your knees slightly and push explosively to drive the kettlebell overhead while simultaneously splitting your legs into a lunge position.
- Catch the kettlebell with a locked arm overhead and ensure balance in the split stance.
- Return to a standing position with the kettlebell overhead to complete the repetition.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Failing to keep the core tight, leading to loss of balance.
- Not fully locking the arm overhead, which can lead to instability.
- Improper split stance balance, causing the knee to go beyond the toes.
