Strength exercise
Kettlebell Bent Over Row (Single Arm)
How to do it
- Hold a kettlebell in one hand and hinge forward at the hips until your torso is near parallel to the floor, resting your free hand lightly on your thigh for balance.
- Let the kettlebell hang at arm's length below your shoulder and brace your core to keep your spine flat.
- Row the kettlebell up toward your ribs, driving your elbow back close to your torso.
- Squeeze the latissimus dorsi and biceps of the working side at the top without letting your torso rotate.
- Exhale as you pull, pause briefly, then lower the kettlebell under control back to a full hang.
- Keep your torso angle fixed throughout the set; avoid twisting your shoulders toward the working side.
