  • 4Lower the kettlebell back down, rotating it to the opposite hand at the bottom of the squat
  • 5Repeat the movement with the other hand

Tips:

  • Keep your back straight and engage your core when lifting the kettlebell

  • Don't let your knees pass your shoes during the squat
  • Make sure the transition from one hand to the other is smooth to avoid injury
