Kettlebell Rotational Switch Press
A rotational press that switches sides, combining trunk turn with overhead pressing and side-to-side control.

Why it matters for golf
Pressing out of rotation teaches the trunk to transfer force from the hips to the arm, the same route power takes in the swing. The switch adds coordination and keeps both sides working evenly.
Coaching cues
- Rotate from the hips, then press.
- Keep the ribs down as the arm goes overhead.
- Make the switch crisp and controlled.
- Reach a full lockout before coming down.
Common faults
- Arching the back to finish the press.
- Rushing the switch and losing the bell path.
