How To Hold A Kettlebell (For Clean, Press, and Turkish Get-up)

One of the things that makes kettlebell training unique is the way the bell rests on the back of the forearm. Without some attention to detail and form, this can cause problems with bruising the arm and pulling the wrist into potentially dangerous angles when loaded.

In this video, you'll learn how to grip the kettlebell handle in the safest, strongest way.

This grip technique is important for the fundamental overhead kettlebell exercises like the military press and Turkish get-up as well as how you hold the bell in the rack position.
