Kettlebell Side Bend (version 2)

Stand tall with feet about shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell in one hand at your side. Keep your chest up, shoulders square, and core braced. Avoid leaning forward or backward. Slowly bend your torso sideways toward the kettlebell, letting it slide down along your thigh toward your knee while keeping control. Pause briefly at the bottom where you feel a stretch in your opposite side. Engage your obliques to return to the starting position in a controlled motion. Complete reps on one side before switching.
