How to Perform Step Ups

Follow these steps to perform step ups with a kettlebell:

  • Step 1: Stand facing a stable bench or step with your feet hip-width apart, holding the kettlebell in a goblet position at chest level.
  • Step 2: Place your right foot firmly on the step, ensuring your knee stays aligned with your ankle.
  • Step 3: Press through your right heel to lift your body upward, bringing your left foot up to join the right on the step.
  • Step 4: Step down with your left foot first, then your right, maintaining control throughout the movement
  • Step 5: Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch the leading leg to balance the workout.

Step Up Tips

  • Ensure the bench or step is secure and at a suitable height.
  • Maintain a straight back and engage your core throughout the exercise.
  • Keep the kettlebell close to your chest to help stabilize your movement.
  • Focus on controlled, deliberate steps to maximize muscle engagement.
