Exercise Profile

Kettlebell Kneeling Shoulder Press Overview

The kettlebell kneeling shoulder press is a highly effective exercise for targeting the shoulder muscles.

By holding the kettlebell in a kneeling position, the shoulders are forced to work harder to stabilize the weight.

This exercise primarily engages the deltoids, trapezius, and rotator cuff muscles, helping to build strength and definition.

While other muscles such as the core and triceps are also involved, the focus remains on the shoulders.
