It works your chest, shoulders, and triceps.

This exercise is different from a regular shoulder press because you move the weight further.

This bigger movement means your muscles work harder and grow stronger.

It's good for building upper body strength.

You can use it in many workout types, like strength training, CrossFit, or bodybuilding.

No matter your fitness level, this exercise can help you get stronger.

To do the exercise, you lie on an incline bench and press kettlebells upwards, palms facing each other.

Start with a light weight to learn the correct form before increasing the weight.

Remember to keep your back flat against the bench and your core engaged throughout the exercise.

Improved Balance and Control: The kettlebell's shape makes it a bit tricky to hold. This means you use more muscles to keep it steady, improving your overall balance and control.

Better Shoulder Movement: Doing the exercise on an incline lets you move your shoulders more fully. This helps them get stronger and more flexible.

More Muscle Use: You'll automatically use your core muscles (stomach and back) to stay stable while pressing the kettlebell. This strengthens your whole body.

Works for Everyone: This exercise can be adjusted to fit different fitness levels. You can use a lighter kettlebell if you're just starting, or a heavier one as you get stronger. It's great for strength training or quick workouts.

How to Do It: Find a bench that is slightly inclined. Hold the kettlebell with your palms facing each other. Press the kettlebell upwards, keeping your core tight. Slowly lower the kettlebell back down. Remember to control the weight at all times.

Sit down: Find a comfortable spot on the bench with your feet flat on the floor. This keeps you steady.

Hold the kettlebells: Grab a kettlebell in each hand, making sure your palms face each other. Start with weights you can easily control.

Get set: Bring the kettlebells up to your shoulders. Keep your elbows tucked in close to your body. This is your starting position.

Tighten up: Squeeze your tummy muscles. This helps protect your back and keeps you stable during the lift.

Lift the kettlebells: Push the kettlebells straight up over your head, keeping your palms facing each other. Go slowly and smoothly.

Slowly lower: Gently bring the kettlebells back down to your shoulders, controlling the movement all the way. Don't just drop them!

Repeat: Do this 8 to 12 times, or however many your trainer recommends. Listen to your body and stop if you feel pain.

Start light: Begin with lighter kettlebells to learn the correct movement. It's better to master the form than to lift heavy weights incorrectly.

Kettlebell Incline Hammer Press: Hold the kettlebells with your palms facing each other (hammer grip). This works your upper chest and shoulders well and is easier on your wrists.

Why it's good: The neutral grip is gentler on your wrists, and it helps you keep good form, leading to better results and fewer injuries. It also helps build balanced strength in your chest and shoulders.

Kettlebell Incline Twist Press: As you press the kettlebells upwards, twist your body slightly. This adds a core workout to your chest exercise.

Why it's good: Twisting makes your core muscles work harder. A strong core is important for balance and helps prevent injuries. This makes the exercise more challenging and functional, meaning it helps you move better in everyday life.

Band Incline Palm-In Press: Use resistance bands instead of kettlebells. You can change how hard the exercise is by adjusting the band's tension.

Why it's good: Resistance bands are a great way to adjust the difficulty. You can make it easier or harder depending on your fitness level. They are also portable and affordable.

All these variations keep the basic pressing movement, but add small changes to make the exercise better. Try them all to see what you like best and to keep your workouts interesting.

Kettlebell Incline Row: This exercise is great for your upper back, biceps, and shoulders. Lie on an incline bench and pull the kettlebells towards your chest. This strengthens your back and improves your body's stability.

Kettlebell Incline Twist Press: This exercise works your chest muscles and also your core (the muscles in your middle). The incline focuses on the upper part of your chest. The twisting action adds a challenge.

Kettlebell Incline Triceps Extension: This focuses on your triceps (the back of your upper arms), but also uses your shoulders and core. Doing it on an incline lets you move your arms further, working your muscles more.

These exercises give you more choices for your workouts and help you build strength in different ways. Try them all and see which ones you like best!

Keep your elbows tucked in: Your elbows should stay close to your sides as you lift the kettlebell. This helps your shoulders stay healthy and strong.

Start with a light weight: It's better to use a weight you can control perfectly than to lift a heavy weight and risk getting hurt. Increase weight gradually as you get stronger.

Lift slowly and carefully: Don't rush the movement. Take your time, and control the kettlebell as it goes up and down. This helps you get the most benefit from the exercise.

Keep your tummy muscles tight: Keep your stomach muscles pulled in throughout the exercise. This helps to support your back and makes the exercise safer and more effective.

This exercise makes your muscles work hard, leading to better strength and definition. It involves pressing a kettlebell upwards while leaning slightly forward, keeping your palms facing each other.

Good form is super important to avoid injuries and get the most out of this exercise. Keep your back straight, core tight, and move the kettlebell in a controlled manner. Avoid jerky movements.

Common mistakes include arching your back (which can hurt your lower back), letting your elbows flare out (reducing effectiveness), and using too much weight (increasing risk of injury). Start with a weight you can comfortably handle with good form.

To make your workouts more interesting, try different versions of the exercise. You can change the angle of your incline, the type of kettlebell, or the number of repetitions. This keeps your muscles guessing and prevents plateaus.

If you find the incline palm-in press too hard or you need a variation, there are other exercises that work similar muscles. These could include dumbbell presses, overhead presses, or even push-ups. Your trainer can help you choose suitable alternatives.
