The Kettlebell Two Arm Military Press is a strength training exercise that targets the shoulders, triceps, and core muscles. It involves lifting kettlebells from shoulder height to overhead in a controlled manner.
How to perform
To perform the Kettlebell Two Arm Military Press, follow these steps:1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a kettlebell in each hand at shoulder height. Your palms should be facing forward and your elbows should be bent.
2. Engage your core muscles and keep your chest up as you press the kettlebells above your head. Fully extend your arms without locking out your elbows.
3. Lower the kettlebells back down to shoulder height with control, keeping your elbows close to your body throughout the movement.
4. Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions.
Make sure to maintain proper form throughout the exercise to avoid injury. Keep your core engaged, shoulders down and back, and avoid arching your back or leaning too far back during the press. It's also important to use an appropriate weight that challenges you without sacrificing form.
