How to do Kettlebell Floor Press

Setup

Lie on your back on the floor with knees bent and feet flat, a kettlebell racked in each hand and your elbows resting on the ground at roughly 45 degrees from your ribs.

How to do it

  1. Press the kettlebells straight up until your elbows are locked out over your chest
  2. Lower with control until your triceps lightly touch the floor without relaxing
  3. Keep your wrists straight with the bells resting on the outer forearms
  4. Exhale as you press, inhale as you lower

Watch out for

  • Bouncing the elbows off the floor instead of pausing with control
  • Flaring the elbows straight out to the sides, which stresses the shoulders
