Halo
From Onnit Academy
The Halo exercise targets your shoulders, core, and upper back by rotating a kettlebell in a controlled circle around your head. Stand tall, brace your core, and hold the kettlebell by the horns. Execute slow and controlled movements to engage stability and prevent neck strain. This exercise enhances shoulder mobility and improves posture. Suitable for warm-ups or integrated into a strength circuit.
Suitcase Deadlift
From Girls Gone Strong
The Suitcase Deadlift is a strength exercise where you lift a kettlebell from the ground with one hand, mimicking the motion of picking up a suitcase. This movement targets the core, hamstrings, and grip strength, while also engaging the stabilizing muscles of the trunk. Great for improving balance and unilateral strength, it requires maintaining a flat back and bracing the core throughout the lift.
Standing Side Bend
The Standing Side Bend is an exercise that targets the oblique muscles by bending the torso sideways while holding a weight. It helps improve flexibility and build core strength. Ensure the motion is controlled, avoiding jerking movements. Keep your core engaged and feet firmly planted to maintain balance. Regular practice can contribute to a more defined waistline.
