Kettlebell Front Squat
Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
The kettlebell front squat is a compound exercise that targets the lower body and demands core stability. It effectively builds strength in the quadriceps, glutes, and hamstrings, while also engaging the core for stability. Holding the kettlebell at the chest height further activates the upper body for support.
How to do it
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart holding a kettlebell at chest height.
- Keep chest up and engage core. Bend knees, pushing hips back, lowering into a squat.
- Lower until thighs are parallel to the floor, maintaining an upright torso.
- Press through heels to return to standing, keeping the kettlebell secure.
