How to perform it
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointing outwards. Hold a kettlebell with both hands in front of your body, arms extended downwards. Bend your knees and lower your hips into a squat position, keeping your back straight. Drive through your heels and explosively extend your hips and knees, pulling the kettlebell up towards your chin. As you pull the kettlebell up, keep your elbows high and wide, and squeeze your shoulder blades together. Lower the kettlebell back down to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
