Seated March with Unilateral Weight Overhead (Exercise Classification: Beginner)
Equipment: Kettlebell
*If you do not have a kettlebell, don’t worry! You can use a standard weight, a milk jug full of water, or anything that weighs ~5-10 pounds that can be safely held in your hands. You can also modify by doing the exercise without any weight.
- Get a weight that you can lift overhead with mild to moderate difficulty and sit down in a chair. Your feet should completely rest on the floor.
- Push the weight towards the ceiling as you alternate legs and march in place.
- Remember to breath as you do this
- Perform for 1 minute with the weight in 1 arm. Rest for 1 minute. Perform another 1 with the weight in the other arm.
- If this pinches in the front of your hip, move to a slightly higher chair or try moving your feet and hips apart from each other.
