Two-Arm Kettlebell Clean Exercise
Builds strength and control by improving stability, coordination, and efficient movement.
Description
Two-arm kettlebell clean focuses on controlled movement and maintaining proper body alignment throughout the exercise. The goal is to create tension where needed while avoiding unnecessary strain or momentum. This helps improve movement quality, joint stability, and overall physical control.
Instructions:
- Place two kettlebells between your feet. To get in the starting position, push your butt back and look straight ahead.
- Clean the kettlebells to your shoulders by extending through the legs and hips as you raise the kettlebells towards your shoulders. Rotate your wrists as you do so.
- Lower the kettlebells back to the starting position and repeat.
Exercise FAQ
What should I do if I feel it in the wrong place?
Check your setup, slow down, and reduce weight. If discomfort is sharp or in a joint, stop and choose an easier variation.
Which muscles should feel like they’re doing most of the work?
You should feel the target muscles working while the rest of the body stays braced. If a joint or the lower back is doing the heavy lifting, reduce load and tighten your setup. Think of it as power/skill done with repeatable, clean reps.
What should I focus on to keep good form?
Move with control and keep your torso stable. Use a range of motion you can own, and stop the set if you need momentum to finish reps. Think of it as power/skill done with repeatable, clean reps.
