Kettlebell
beginner
compound
Stand tall with a kettlebell held in one hand, arm extended down, on the same side as the leg that will lunge back.
Step one leg straight back, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at approximately 90 degrees.
Keep your front shin vertical and your chest upright, ensuring your back knee hovers just above the floor.
Drive through your front heel to return to the starting position.
Complete all reps per side before switching to the other side.
Choose a load and range you can control. These instructions are general guidance, not a substitute for individual coaching.
