Leg-Over Floor Press

Technique

How to perform Leg-Over Floor Press

1. Lie on your back with one kettlebell held by its handle beside your chest.
2. Cross the extended working-side leg over the other leg and settle into that position.
3. Place your free arm out to the side for support and keep your working shoulder and upper back in contact with the floor.
4. Press the kettlebell upward by extending the working elbow while keeping the bell aligned above it.
5. Lower under control until your upper arm meets the floor, without bouncing the elbow.
6. Keep the crossed-leg setup still throughout the repetitions, then set the bell down with control before changing sides.
