Exercise of the Week - Squat Hold Kettlebell Press

Here is a great video from Mike Boyle showing a kettlebell press from a deep squat position. The exercise is from Dan John's Warm-up DVD which can be found at DaveDraper.com.

It's a great anti-flexion exercise that you have to try. Your abdominals will give out before your shoulders ever will. And it's one more way to engage the core in the squat position so I'm going to be playing around with this one to improve the deep overhead squat. Lots of people can achieve a deep squat position unloaded, put them upright and not a prayer because of faulty muscle timing and/or poor stability through the core.
