Pressing the little Beast

In the world of kettlebells the 48 kg bell is called The Beast and only the worlds strongest can snatch or press it.   In my somewhat smaller world the 24 kg is as big as I will personally every need to use for most lifts.  My 2 primary goals at the moment revolve around the 24 kg bell.  My goals are to snatch the 24 kg bell 100x in 5 minutes and be capable of doing multiple rounds of 5 strict pressing a pair of these bells.  I am still looking to buy a 2nd 24 kg bell but there is no rush because I'm very far away from being able to press a pair of these even once!

Here's one of my first shots even attempting to press the 24 kg bell.  Before each rep I do a few specific things.  I grip the ground with my feet, squeeze my thighs, glutes and midsection. I imagine a sponge in between my upper arm and side ribs, squeeze the sponge to activate the lats.  The lats are the bridge for the press.  It is no bs to say that this is a full-body lift!  I try to keep my left arm "alive" by squeezing squeezing the left side of the body as if it was pressing a bell too.   If you try the same exercise without attention to firming the entire body you will be shocked at how weak you will feel.  I will press a pair of these bells 5x before the next 6 months is up!
