Kettlebell High Pull Exercise

Audio taken from the Kettlebell High Pulls Video

Next, we’re moving onto the High Pull exercise. The High Pull is like a continuation on from the kettlebell swing, except we’re going to hold the kettlebell with one hand. The kettlebell’s going to come to the top, the shoulder. From here, we’re going to pull the elbow back, keeping the elbow nice and high and the wrist nice and tight. Then we push the kettlebell back down again and back into the one-handed swing. It looks like this. Let me demonstrate with the kettlebell.

Again, check the feet. Feet a little bit wider than shoulder-width, toes just pointing out. Pick the kettlebell up with one hand nice and safely. From here, we push it off the hips, get the swing started. When the swing’s at the top, we pull it back and push it forwards. Remember to stand tall, glutes nice and tight. Keep the wrist tight.

That’s the High Pull; you’re going to perform 25 on each side. Make sure you keep the wrist nice and tight, a nice straight line. Make sure the elbow’s nice and high as you pull back and then push back forwards again. That’s the High Pull. Good luck with it. Tricky little exercise. 25 on each side.
