Kettlebell Workouts - Double Kettlebell Clean and Press

The Double Kettlebell Clean and Press is a fantastic total body strength and conditioning exercise. It builds powerful hips and legs, and strong shoulders, arms, and grip. When done with appropriate volume, it has the ability to pack on slabs of muscle while simultaneously conditioning the heart and lungs. https://chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-workouts/

Here’s a quick rundown of how you do it safely:
1. Start with the kettlebells in front of you.
2. Aggressively hike the kettlebells behind you underneath your hips.
3. Tuck your elbows into your sides and roll the kettlebells around your
wrists up the front of your body.
4. Keep the kettlebells pulled close to the body.
5. Gently place them in the rack position. Keep the elbows glued to your ribs.
6. Keeping your abs and glutes tight, press the kettlebells up over your
head. Push from your lats.
7. Keeping your abs and glutes tight, pull the kettlebells back down into
the rack.
8. Exhale through the sticking point as you press. Either inhale as you
lower the kettlebells or hold your breath and inhale before your next rep.
9. Re-clean the kettlebells and repeat for the desired number of reps.
10. Lower the kettlebells to the ground the same way would for the Double Swing.

Double Kettlebell Exercises — The Strong! Program

Image
There are three various training cycles within the "Strong!" program. The first is an 8 to 12-week block that trains your strength, based upon your 4 repeating maximum (RM), keeping the variety of repeatings low-- between 1 and 3-- and the variety of sets high. Rest between sets is "... as necessary ..." with the objective being "... to make each and every rep." Auto-regulation at its heart. Sounds noticeably comparable to EMOM A+A (every minute on the minute, alactic + aerobic) procedures from Strong Endurance ™, doesn't it? The second cycle trains work capacity and/or hypertrophy. It has two variations: the "Short Course" and the "Slow and Steady." The very first variation has you double your beginning volume in 4 to 6 weeks. The second, is more merciful, and spreads it out over 16 to 24 weeks. Both are created to make your old 4RM starting weight feel like a toy. However, because its objective is to develop muscle mass and/o
