How to do it
Stack your shoulders directly over your hips before twisting.
- 1
Stand with your feet hip-width apart.
- 2
Step forward with one leg and lower your hips to drop into a lunge, both knees bent at a 90-degree angle.
- 3
Place your hands together in front of your chest and twist your torso to the side of the front leg.
- 4
Twist back to center and push through the front heel to return to the starting position.
- 5
Repeat on the other side and continue alternating for the desired number of repetitions.
Expert tip
Keep your core engaged throughout the movement to help maintain balance and maximize the twist's effectiveness.
