How to do it

Squeeze your glutes to anchor your pelvis during each lift.

  1. 1

    Lie on your stomach with your hands behind your head.

  2. 2

    Lift your chest off the ground and rotate your upper body to one side.

  3. 3

    Return to the center and lower your chest to the starting position.

  4. 4

    Repeat the movement, alternating the side you rotate to with each repetition.

Expert tip

Keep your core engaged and rotate your torso fully to engage the shoulder and chest muscles effectively.
