Exercise Profile

Kettlebell Swing Clean Overview

The kettlebell Swing clean is a dynamic exercise that targets the Quads, Glutes, and Lower Back.

By using a kettlebell, this workout engages these muscles through explosive hip extension and flexion movements.

While other muscles are involved, the primary focus remains on the Quads, Glutes, and Lower Back.

The kettlebell acts as a resistance tool, allowing for a challenging and effective workout for these specific muscle groups.

  2. Bend at the hips and knees, keeping your back straight and chest up, and grip the kettlebell handle with both hands, palms facing towards you.
  3. Engage your quads, glutes, and lower back as you explosively extend your hips and swing the kettlebell up to shoulder height, using the momentum generated by your lower body.
  4. As the kettlebell reaches its peak, squeeze your glutes and engage your quads to maintain control and stability in your lower body, while keeping your core tight to protect your lower back.
