Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Kettlebell Deep Push-Up.
A bodyweight chest exercise performed with hands gripping two kettlebell handles on the floor, allowing a deeper range of motion than a standard push-up. The extra depth increases chest stretch at the bottom and recruits the pectorals more fully.
The Kettlebell Deep Push-Up is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
