Instructions

1. Stand up straight with feet shoulder-width apart.

2. Hold a kettlebell in each hand in front of you with palms facing your body. Your hands should be a bit wider than shoulder width.

3. Keep your back straight and chest up as you pull the kettlebells upward to chest level. Your elbows should lead the way and go higher than your forearms.

4. Aim to raise the kettlebells close to your body, and keep your wrists firm as you lift.

5. Pause briefly at the top of the movement when the kettlebells reach chest level.

6. Lower the kettlebells back down to the starting position in a controlled manner.

7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Make sure to perform the exercise with proper form to avoid any potential shoulder strain. Also, select a weight that allows you to complete the exercise with control but is still challenging for the targeted muscles.
