Bottoms Up Kettlebell Training

Bottoms Up Kettlebell Training with 40kg Kettlebell

I've also spent some time training the BUP this weekend. Concentrating mainly on the 40kg kettlebell for reps. I used a 48kg beast kb on the opposite side to force the active side to work harder.



This straightens the body up and prevents too much leaning and side pressing (this can only be good).

I found with this that the working shoulder gets really pumped up as the rest of the body can't be brought into play. It's about as far as I will ever go with isolation movements.

Other BUP moves I have been doing are heavy BUP oneside and light press opposite side, now this is a great exercise and seriously makes the grip work over time.

As an example you would be BUP'ing a 40kg on the left and pressing a 20kg on the right. Give this a try out and you'll see what I mean.

It really feels like you're crushing the handle for everything you're worth.

I've been inspired by Brian Schoonveld's Arnold Classic Kettlebell Challenge win to get some more overheads done with the 60kg and practice my jerk technique.

Will post some footage later this week.
