What It Is
A quick knee dip and leg drive help push the weights overhead. You can move more than your arms could alone.
How to Do It
Hold a dumbbell in each hand at your shoulders. Dip your knees a few inches, keeping your chest tall. Drive up hard through your legs and press the dumbbells straight overhead. Lower them back to your shoulders.
Skill Level
Intermediate. Free-weight lifts, single-leg balance under load, or near-bodyweight strength moves. Form matters.
Type
Power. Builds explosive strength with fast, forceful movement.
Engagement
Bilateral. Each rep works both sides of the body at once.
