Get-up to Press

This is the roll to press movement that begins the Get Up exercise.

Begin in a side lying position beside the kettlbell. Grab the kettlbell with one hand underneath the handle and the other hand on top of the kettlebell. Then proceed to roll over into a supine position with the kettlebell resting on the abdomen. 
 
Once in a comfortable position, press the kettlebell straight up with both hands and place the hand that is on top of the handle on the ground. The final position should be that the legs and unloaded arm are between 30-45 degrees from midline on the surface with one arm pressing the kettlebell vertical.
