How to do the Halo to Dumbbell Front Push Out
Setup
Standing with feet shoulder-width apart, hold a single dumbbell vertically by the ends in front of your chest.
Performing the Halo Movement
Begin by tracing a circle around your head with the dumbbell, maintaining close proximity to your hair or ears.
Keep your core engaged throughout the movement to resist twisting your torso.
Return the dumbbell to the starting position in front of your chest.
Performing the Push Out
From the starting position after completing the circle, drive the dumbbell straight forward, extending your arms fully away from your chest.
Squeeze your chest and shoulders, then pull the dumbbell back in slowly to complete one repetition.
Tips
Focus on control rather than speed, especially while circling the weight around the head to target overhead mobility and shoulder stability effectively.
