Kettlebell Push-up Overview

The kettlebell push-up workout is a targeted exercise for the chest, utilizing the kettlebell for added resistance.

During the workout, the kettlebell is placed on the ground, with one hand on the handle while performing push-ups.

While the workout primarily focuses on the chest, it also engages the core and shoulders, providing a full upper body workout.

  4. Keep your body in a straight line throughout the movement, avoiding any sagging or arching of your back.

  2. Engage your core and lower yourself down into a push-up position, keeping your body in a straight line.
  3. As you lower your body, focus on engaging your chest muscles by squeezing them together.
  4. Push through your hands and exhale as you return to the starting position, keeping your elbows slightly bent.
  5. To challenge yourself, try performing the push-up on the handles of the kettlebells, increasing the range of motion.
