Hold a weight with both hands and extend your arms above your chest, keeping your hands together.
Slowly lower the weight to one side, twisting your torso but not your hips, until the weight is just above the floor.
Pause for a moment, then lift the weight back to the starting position above your chest.
Repeat the movement on the other side to complete one repetition, and continue to alternate sides for the desired number of repetitions.
Pro Tip
Avoid Straining the Neck: A common mistake to avoid is straining your neck. Do not use your neck to try and lift the weight; instead, focus on engaging your abdominal and oblique muscles to perform the twist. Your neck should remain relaxed and in a neutral position throughout the exercise. Choose Appropriate Weight: The weight you choose should be challenging but manageable. If the weight is too heavy, it can lead to improper form and potential injury. Start with a lighter weight and gradually increase as your strength and endurance improve. Controlled Movements: Avoid rushing through the exercise
