The rotational lift builds strength in your core, particularly in your obliques. The exercise also strengthens and stabilizes the lower back.
Instructions
Lie on your back with your knees bent to 90 degrees and feet flat on the floor. Place your hands behind your head for support.
Tighten your abs and bring your chest towards your knees by raising your shoulder blades and head off the floor without letting your lower back lose contact with the floor.
Rotate to one side, and then return to the starting position to prepare to rotate to the other side.
Trainer’s Tips
Keep your feet flat on the ground throughout the exercise.
Avoid letting your lower back come off the ground.
