How to do the bottoms-up kettlebell squat!
There are three reasons why bottoms-up squatting is good for you and your squats:
- CORE ACTIVATION. The bottoms-up kettlebell squat turns on your core more than most squat variations. Learn how to use your abs to make your squat stronger.
- SLOW & CONTROLLED. Don’t drop into your squat and bounce out of the bottom! Rushed squats will always rob you of your strength gains. The bottoms-up kettlebell squat forces you to move slowly and own each position.
- STAY UPRIGHT. If you tend to lean forward or you struggle to stay upright in your squats, the bottoms-up squat will fix that too.
