Plyo Kettlebell Pushups

A dynamic plyometric pushup variation using kettlebells to increase upper body power.

Instructions

• Place two kettlebells on the ground, handle side down.
• Get into a push-up position with one hand on each kettlebell.
• Lower your body towards the ground by bending your elbows.
• Explode upwards to lift your hands off the kettlebells.
• Land your hands back onto the kettlebells and immediately descend into the next repetition.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Not exploding upward enough to clear the kettlebells.
• Landing hard on the kettlebells which can lead to injury.
• Allowing the lower back to sag during the push-up.
• Not keeping the body aligned, leading to uneven push-ups.
