Kettlebell Overhead Lunge

Video coming soon...

The kettlebell overhead lunge is a challenging workout that targets the quads and glutes.

By holding the kettlebell overhead, it increases the demand on the quads and glutes.

The kettlebell’s weight adds resistance, making the exercise more effective for building strength.

While other muscles are involved, the primary focus of this workout is on the quads and glutes.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in one hand at shoulder height.
Take a step forward with your opposite leg, keeping your torso upright and core engaged.
Lower your body into a lunge position, bending both knees to a 90-degree angle.
As you lunge down, press the kettlebell overhead, fully extending your arm.
Push through your front heel and return to the starting position, keeping the kettlebell overhead.
Repeat the lunge on the opposite leg, stepping forward and lowering into a lunge position.
Continue alternating lunges, pressing the kettlebell overhead with each repetition.

Start by selecting a kettlebell that challenges you but allows you to maintain proper form throughout the exercise. This will ensure that you engage your quads and glutes effectively without compromising your safety.
Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart and hold the kettlebell with both hands at chest level, keeping your core tight and shoulders back. This position will help you maintain stability and activate your quads and glutes right from the start.
Take a big step forward with one leg, maintaining a straight back and keeping the kettlebell close to your body. As you lower your body into a lunge position, focus on driving through your front heel to engage your quads and glutes. This will help you maintain balance and control throughout the movement.
As you push back up to the starting position, make sure to keep your chest lifted and your core engaged. This will help you maintain proper alignment and maximize the activation of your quads and glutes. Remember to breathe throughout the exercise to maintain a steady flow of oxygen to your muscles.
Repeat the exercise on the opposite leg, aiming for a smooth and controlled movement. As you progress, you can increase the weight of the kettlebell or add more repetitions to challenge your quads and glutes even further. Stay consistent and patient, and you’ll soon notice improvements in your form and strength.
