How to perform the double clean and jerk

• Start with feet wider than shoulder width and have two kettlebells in front of you, on the floor.
• Sit back, grab the handles and swing the kettlebells backwards between your feet.
• At the end of the back swing, drive your hips upward and clean the kettlebells to shoulder height.
• Perform a half squat, drive hips upwards and push the kettlebells overhead, so that your arms are extended.
