Double Kettlebell Jerk

What it is

You perform a dynamic, full-body movement using two kettlebells, building power and strength. This exercise primarily targets your shoulders, with significant contributions from your quadriceps, calves, and triceps. Drive the weights overhead with explosive leg and hip power, using your body's momentum.

Technique tips

• Clean the kettlebells smoothly to your shoulders.
• Dip straight down, keeping your torso upright and engaged.
• Drive through your heels explosively to generate power.
• Use the leg drive to press the kettlebells overhead.
• Land in a stable split stance, one foot forward.
• Control the kettlebells as you return to a standing position.

How to track your progress

Log the weight and reps of each set. Straddly turns every set into an estimated one-rep max, so a heavier single and a strong set of eight both count as progress, and it flags a personal record the moment you beat your best.
