How to Do It

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out.
  2. Hold the kettlebell with both hands in front of your chest, close to your body.
  3. Engage your core and keep your chest up as you lower your hips down and back, as if sitting into a chair.
  4. Lower until your thighs are parallel to the ground, or as low as you can comfortably go.
  5. Drive through your heels to stand back up, squeezing your glutes at the top.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
