How it’s performed

  1. Clean and press a kettlebell overhead with one arm.
  2. Keeping the kettlebell locked out at all times, push your butt out in the direction of the locked out kettlebell. Keep the non-working arm behind your back and turn your feet out at a forty-five degree angle from the arm with the kettlebell.
  3. Lower yourself as far as possible.
  4. Pause for a second and reverse the motion back to the starting position.

General movement description — not Justin’s coaching. He hasn’t catalogued this lift, so there’s no Troponin cue for it.
