Position

Sit on the ground with your knees bent and feet elevated off the ground, holding a dumbbell with both hands in front of your chest.

Movement

  • Lean back slightly to engage your core muscles and extend your legs out in front of you.
  • Rotate your torso to the right and lower the dumbbell towards the ground, then twist to the left and repeat the movement.

Breathing

Exhale as you twist and lower the dumbbell, inhale as you return to the starting position.

Tips

  • Focus on using your core muscles to rotate your torso and stabilize your body throughout the movement.
  • Keep your back straight and avoid rounding your spine to prevent strain on the lower back.
  • Start with a light weight and gradually increase the resistance as you build strength and improve your form.
