Strength exercise
Kettlebell Lunge (Goblet)
How to do it
- Hold a kettlebell vertically against your chest with both hands cupped under the horns, standing with feet hip-width apart.
- Brace your core and step one foot backward or forward into a lunge stance.
- Bend both knees to lower your hips straight down, keeping your front knee tracking over the front foot.
- Press through the front heel to drive back up to the standing position, keeping the kettlebell steady at your chest.
- Exhale as you press up and inhale as you lower, completing all reps on one side before switching legs.
- A common fault is letting the kettlebell drift away from the chest, so keep it held close throughout the rep.
