Kettlebell Overhead Lunge

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in one hand at shoulder level.

2. Grip the handle tightly and press the kettlebell overhead, fully extending your arm. Keep your wrist straight and the kettlebell stable.

3. Stabilize your core, keep your chest up, and maintain a neutral spine.

4. Step forward with one leg into a lunge position, keeping the kettlebell overhead. Your front knee should be bent at a 90-degree angle and aligned over your ankle. Your back knee should hover just above the floor.

5. Keep the arm with the kettlebell extended, ensuring that your bicep is close to your ear and your arm is straight. Avoid letting the kettlebell sway or move.

6. Push through your front heel to return to the starting position, keeping the kettlebell overhead.

7. Repeat the lunge with the opposite leg, maintaining the kettlebell in the overhead position.

8. Perform the desired number of repetitions and sets. You may switch arms between sets or complete all reps on one arm before switching.

Tips: Make sure to complete a proper warm-up before attempting this exercise. Begin with a light kettlebell to perfect the technique before increasing the weight. Keep your movements controlled to prevent injury and maintain balance. Breathe in as you lunge forward and breathe out as you return to the starting position. If you're new to this exercise, you can start by performing the lunges without the kettlebell and gradually add weight as you build strength and balance.
