Assisted Pistol

User Rating: / 6

	The Ring Assisted Pistol is a great way to ease yourself into the Pistol exercise. It gives you some support while still putting the brunt of the work on your leg. Make sure you tie the other end of the strap to a sturdy support piece. Use it as much as you need and slowly wean yourself off the support rings. An excellent exercise for strong and resilient legs.
Purpose/Focus: Strength Body Parts Used: Legs, Core, Grip Difficulty: Moderate
