Instructions

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart while holding a kettlebell in each hand at shoulder level. Ensure your palms are facing each other and the kettlebells are resting on the outside of your wrists.

2. Engage your core and maintain a straight back throughout the movement.

3. Begin by pressing one kettlebell overhead, fully extending your arm while keeping the other kettlebell at shoulder level.

4. Lower the raised kettlebell back to the starting position in a controlled manner.

5. Once the first kettlebell is back at shoulder level, press the other kettlebell overhead, fully extending your arm.

6. Continue to alternate arms for the desired number of repetitions.

7. Keep a steady pace and controlled movement, focusing on using your shoulder muscles to lift the kettlebells.

8. After completing all repetitions, carefully place the kettlebells on the ground to finish the exercise.

Remember to breathe out as you press the kettlebell upward and inhale as you lower it back down. It's important to choose a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form and control.
