Kettlebell Turkish Get-Up

Kettlebell Turkish Get-Up

Lie on your back and press a kettlebell straight up with one arm, bending the same-side knee with that foot flat on the floor. Roll up onto your opposite forearm, then your hand, and lift your hips into a bridge while keeping the bell punched toward the ceiling. Sweep your straight leg back into a kneeling lunge, come to standing, then reverse every step in order to return to the floor. Keep your eyes on the kettlebell during the early stages and move slowly with full control, then switch sides.
