How to do a kettlebell clean and press

  1. Stand with feet hip width apart and the kettlebell between your feet.
  2. Hinge at the hips, grip the handle with one hand, and hike the bell back between your legs.
  3. Drive your hips forward and pull the bell along your body into the rack position.
  4. From the rack, press the kettlebell overhead until your elbow locks out.
  5. Lower the bell back to the rack, then swing it down between your legs for the next rep.
  6. Complete all reps, then switch sides.

Form tips

  • Keep the bell close to your body during the clean, it should roll around your wrist, not flip onto it.
  • Brace your core and squeeze your glutes before pressing.
  • Finish the press with your biceps close to your ear.
