Kettlebell Halo

What it is

Holding a kettlebell by the horns, you circle it around the head close to the neck. It builds shoulder mobility and stability. Switch direction each set.

Technique tips

• Hold the bell upside down by the horns
• Circle it close around the head
• Keep the core braced
• Switch direction

How to track your progress

Log the weight and reps of each set. Straddly turns every set into an estimated one-rep max, so a heavier single and a strong set of eight both count as progress, and it flags a personal record the moment you beat your best.
