The Turkish getup is one of the best exercises you can do to improve shoulder stabilization and mobility, activate your core through different planes of motions, and look like a badass when you can master this movement.

But it's a complicated movement. And most people rush through it and do it incorrectly.

Use this detailed guide to master the Turkish getup and bulletproof your body with improved movement and mobility. Take your time learning each phase and spend 1 - 2 weeks getting the movements down and slowly increasing the weight. I prefer dumbbells since it's easier to make weight jumps slowly versus a kettlebell where its usually at least a 4kb increase.
