Since I added the XIT kettlebell class to my workout routine, I have become much more comfortable with KB cleans. It’s rare to have a class that does not involve at least one exercise that utilizes a clean. Most often, the clean is part of a compound move like a clean to press. I’ve become quite good at executing a clean to press, but in XIT this week I was introduced to the single arm/single leg clean to press. As you can see in my video, the clean movement really throws you off your balance. I’m proud of myself for being able to maintain my balance even with a heavier kettlebell. It would definitely have been easier if I had gone with a smaller kettlebell, but I love a good challenge.
