Kettlebell Turkish Get Ups
———————————————————
The get up is quite simple to perform in my opinion and it has many benefits that carries over to other lifts.
Its a great overall strength exercise however if you increase a number of repetitions and you spend more time under tension in each position, it will quickly be a tough condition piece as well.
The first phase of the get up is where most of us will find the challenge… including myself 😅
Also I have noticed that many people put too much emphasis on the loaded arm, not the base arm.
This is where a lot people perform a sit up, crunching the spine and trying to compensate for the lack of stability. Instead think about driving elbow hard to the ground to activate obliques and push the heel of the bend leg down to activate your gluteus.
Think about the movement more as a rolling exercise and not as a sit up ☝🏽
