Açıklama
Bent Over Twist is a dynamic rotational exercise that works the oblique muscles and the lower back region together. This movement improves core stability while increasing the mobility needed for torso rotation. Performed in a bent-over position, this exercise provides stimulus to the abdominal muscles from a different angle. It develops rotational strength, which is important for daily activities and sports. Suitable for beginners, weight can be added as you progress. It is an effective movement that increases the functional strength of the lower back and abdominal region.
Adım Adım Talimatlar
- 1
Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart

Önemli Noktalar
- ✓Lean forward with a slight bend at the waist, keeping the back straight
- ✓Keep the abdominal muscles engaged at all times
- ✓Initiate the rotation from the shoulders — do not just swing the arms
- ✓Keep your knees slightly bent to protect the lower back
- ✓Maintain a controlled range of motion and avoid sudden twists
Yaygın Hatalar
- ✗Rounding or hunching the back — risk of lower back injury
- ✗Fully locking the knees — increases joint pressure
- ✗Just swinging the arms — does not effectively work the obliques
- ✗Performing the movement too quickly — risk of injury
- ✗Relaxing the abdominal muscles — fails to support the lower back
Nefes Kontrolü
Exhale as you rotate, inhale as you return to the center. Keep the abdominal muscles engaged at all times.
