Pull Up (Kettlebell)

User Rating: / 1
PoorBest 

	The Kettlebell Pull Up exercise is a difficult exercise that combines a standard bodyweight Pull Up with heavy weight. The additional weight provided by the kettlebell will force you to use additional upper body and core strength to get your chin above the bar each time. Make sure you're in a location where dropping a kettlebell from height won't damage the floor.
Purpose/Focus: Strength Body Parts Used: Shoulders, Back, Core, Arms Difficulty: Advanced

Exercise Steps

	Grab a Pull Up Bar with your hands shoulder width apart. Hook the Kettlebell handle with one of your feet.
	Keeping your core tight and your foot through the Kettlebell handle, pull your body straight up, aiming your chest at the pull up bar. Attempt to get your chin above the bar before stopping.
	Lower yourself slowly down, stopping before the Kettlebell touches the ground. Try to complete all reps without all the Kettlebell to touch the ground.
	At the bottom of each rep, try not to allow your shoulders to extend out from your shoulder sockets. Instead, keep your shoulders tucked throughout the duration of the exercise.
