Start with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and the kettlebell in both your hands. Keeping the arch in your lower back, bend your knees and push your hips back until the kettlebell is between and behind your legs; squeeze your glutes (butt) to extend your hips and swing the kettlebell forward. The kettlebell should swing as high as your shoulders.
