Shoulder press with kettlebells on both arms

In the traditional kettlebell shoulder press, you engage both shoulders simultaneously. In the following section, you will find comprehensive information on the correct body posture and execution of the movement.

Body position

Start by assuming the starting position. Your legs are hip-width apart, and your gaze is forward while maintaining an upright posture. You hold a kettlebell in each hand at shoulder height.

Movement execution

To initiate the kettlebell shoulder press, press the kettlebell powerfully upward. During the upward movement, exhale. Your arms should now be almost fully extended, with your gaze still directed forward. Inhale slowly as you return to the starting position.

One-arm kettlebell shoulder press

With the one-arm kettlebell shoulder press, you engage your shoulders one at a time. Simply hold the kettlebell in one hand and execute the movement deliberately. This exercise allows you to focus entirely on the correct execution of the movement with one arm. At the same time, the second arm can provide support if the weight becomes too challenging.
