A simple but hugely beneficial exercise.
This exercise will help you burn fat, build strength and improve your cardiovascular fitness.
Instructions:
- Bend at your hips, and hold a kettlebell with both hands at arm’s length in front of you.
- Rock back slightly and “hike” the kettlebell between your legs.
- Squeeze your glutes, thrust your hips forward forcefully, and swing the weight to shoulder height. (Allow momentum to swing the weight—you’re not trying to actively lift it with your arms)
- Reverse the movement, so that you swing the kettlebell between your legs again.
- Make sure you don’t round your lower back at any time; it should stay naturally arched when you bend at your hips.
- Repeat the swinging back and forth.
