Russian Twist

Expert Advice

To protect your lower back, avoid rounding your spine and focus on rotating from your core rather than your shoulders.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Sit on the floor with your knees bent and feet flat.
  2. Lean back slightly to create a V-shape with your torso and thighs.
  3. Interlace your fingers or hold your hands together in front of your chest.
  4. Twist your torso to one side, then to the other, engaging your abs with each rotation.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, keeping your movements controlled.
