Instructions

1. Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and hold a kettlebell in your right hand.

2. Turn both feet slightly to the left, with the majority of your weight on your left leg.

3. Lift the kettlebell overhead, locking out your right arm with the wrist over your shoulder. This will be your starting position.

4. Keeping your eyes on the kettlebell, push your hips back to the right, and slowly lower your torso down to the left side. Your left hand should reach down towards the floor or your left foot.

5. Your right arm should remain extended overhead and your legs straight throughout the movement.

6. Lower yourself as far as flexibility allows without bending your knees. You should feel a stretch in your hamstrings and engagement in your obliques.

7. Pause briefly at the bottom, then reverse the motion by tightening your core and pushing your hips forward to return to the starting position.

8. Complete the desired number of repetitions on one side before switching the kettlebell to the left hand and repeating on the opposite side.

Ensure that you maintain a controlled movement throughout the exercise, keeping the kettlebell locked out overhead. Focus on the quality of movement rather than the weight of the kettlebell.
