Bodyweight Windmill
Equipment
Extend your arms out to the sides at shoulder height, then rotate your torso to the right, reaching your left hand down to your right foot and your right arm up towards the ceiling.
Keep your eyes on your raised hand as you hold this position for a moment, feeling the stretch in your side and back.
Slowly reverse the movement, rotating your torso back to the center and lowering your arms back to shoulder height.
Repeat the exercise on the other side by rotating your left foot out and reaching your right hand down to your left foot, keeping your left arm raised.
Pro Tip
Keep Your Eyes on the Extended Hand: One common mistake is not keeping your gaze on your extended hand. This is important as it helps to maintain balance and alignment during the exercise. If you look straight ahead or down, you might lose balance and compromise the effectiveness of the exercise. Don't Rush: The Bodyweight Windmill is not an exercise that should be performed quickly. It's all about control and precision. Rushing through the movements can lead to poor form and potential injury. Engage Your Core:
