User Rating: / 0
PoorBest 

	The Squat Halo provides a great amount of shoulder mobility and strength. It takes your shoulder through a wide range of motions while forcing you to keep tense. Halos performed correctly will provide shoulder strength for swimmers as well as fighters. When performed with light enough weights, halos provide a great warmup. Combine with a squat and you're looking at a full body exercise.
Purpose/Focus: Mobility, Flexibility, Conditioning Body Parts Used: Hips, Shoulders, Back, Core, Arms, Legs Difficulty: Easy
