Plyometric kettlebell pushups take a traditional upper-body movement and add speed, coordination, and explosiveness. By pushing from one side of the kettlebell to the other, you build power while training balance and control. FitnessTracker recommends this for advanced users looking to increase pressing speed and muscular responsiveness.
Instructions
- Place a kettlebell on the ground and get into a pushup position with one hand on the bell and one on the floor.
- Lower your chest toward the ground while maintaining a straight spine.
- Explosively push off the ground, switching hand positions in mid-air to land with the opposite hand on the kettlebell.
- Lower again and repeat the explosive transition back to the first side.
- Continue alternating sides for the desired number of reps.
