How to do a kettlebell gorilla rows
- Place two kettlebells on the floor between your feet and hinge forward with a flat back, gripping one kettlebell in each hand.
- Brace your core and maintain a slight bend in your knees with your hips high.
- Pull one kettlebell up toward your hip, driving your elbow back while keeping the other arm planted for support.
- Lower the kettlebell under control back to the floor.
- Repeat the pull with the opposite arm, alternating sides in a smooth rhythm.
