Main Muscle Groups Worked: Lower Back, Middle Back, Forearms, Obliques, Gluteus Maximus and Hamstrings.

Focus on form when beginning this advanced exercise.

Use a lighter kettlebell and be aware of the importance of staying as upright as possible and controlling your rotational momentum. Ensure you have adequate space around you for this exercise.

1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and take the kettlebell by both “horns”. Bring your shoulders back and tuck your chin in, making sure you are standing tall and upright.

2. Holding the kettlebell in front of your navel and groin area, turn your whole body around 360˚ with your feet rotating.

3. After three rotations in the same direction, stop. Control the stop by planting your feet down hard, with heels flat on the ground and knees slightly bent, but not excessively.
