Kettlebell Thruster
The Kettlebell Thruster is a strength movement that targets your shoulders. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Kettlebell Thruster
- Hold the bell in rack position, feet shoulder-width apart.
- Squat to parallel, then drive up explosively and press the bell overhead in one continuous motion.
- Use the momentum from your leg drive to power the press — don't muscle it separately.
- Lock out fully at the top: arm straight, hips extended, before lowering back to rack.
