Kettlebell Clean (Double)

How to do it

  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, a kettlebell on the floor between the feet, and hinge down to grip both handles.
  2. Hike the kettlebells back slightly between the legs like a hike pass, keeping the back flat.
  3. Drive the hips forward explosively to extend the knees and hips, pulling both kettlebells upward close to the body.
  4. Guide the kettlebells around the wrists rather than banging them into the forearms, catching them at the shoulders.
  5. Receive both kettlebells in the rack position with elbows tucked and core braced, knees slightly bent.
  6. Lower the kettlebells back down along the same path under control before the next repetition.
