How to perform it

  1. 1Begin standing with a light kettlebell held in one hand at your side, then perform the Turkish Get-up sequence: lie to your back, press the KB to lockout, roll to your elbow, press to your hand, lift your hips, sweep the leg through, and rise to standing — all with one arm. Reverse the sequence back to the floor with the same arm, maintaining a locked-out wrist and packed shoulder throughout every phase. Move deliberately and breathe steadily at each transition point, never rushing. Avoid letting the KB tip or the shoulder shrug — feel total body integration from foot to fist with the shoulder working as a stable base.
