Exercise Description

The seated kettlebell press builds shoulder strength and stability. It targets your deltoids while engaging your core for better posture and upper body power.

How To

1. Sit tall on a bench with feet flat on the floor, holding a kettlebell at shoulder height with one hand 2. Keep your core tight and back straight throughout the entire seated kettlebell press movement 3. Press the kettlebell straight up overhead until your arm is fully extended 4. Lower the weight back down to shoulder level with control during your seated kettlebell press 5. Complete all reps on one side before switching to the other arm

Form Tips

• Keep your core engaged throughout the entire seated kettlebell press to protect your lower back • Press straight up, not forward or backward, to target your shoulders properly • Don't arch your back excessively during the seated kettlebell press movement • Control the weight on the way down - don't just drop it to shoulder level

Common Mistakes

• Arching the back too much during the seated kettlebell press, which can strain your spine • Pressing the weight forward instead of straight up, reducing shoulder activation • Using momentum to lift the weight instead of controlled muscle movement in your seated kettlebell press
