Summary

The Half Turkish Get Up is great core exercise that also yields tremendous benefits to your pressing ability. Throughout the entire movement your core is being worked. To the same degree, the shoulder that is keeping the kettlebell overhead is being used to maintain that overhead position. Since you go through a wide range of positions, you’re flexibility and mobility are challenged giving you a far greater exercise. If you are looking for a compound exercise that hits multiple muscles, the Half TGU is a great exercise choice for you. The Kettlebell Half Get up is a great way to introduce this exercise to someone who does not feel comfortable performing the entire motion or when using a heavy weight that is new for you.
