To do Russian twist, you can lie on the floor, cross your feet and keep your back flat. Knees slightly bent. Feet together can keep stable; Keep the lower body still and lift the upper body to form an imaginary V-shape with the thigh. Extend your arms completely forward, perpendicular to your body, and hold the barbell or other heavy objects with both hands.

Matters needing attention in doing Russian twist

During exercise, you must tighten your abdominal muscles, while your waist and abdomen contract and your body twist to the right. When your arms are parallel to the ground, exhale. Next, keep the abdominal muscles contracted and slowly return to the original position. The exercise on the other side is the same, which can be repeated and alternated left and right.

When doing this exercise, you should pay attention to the fact that the lower body can't move, so you should always keep the lower body stable during the exercise.

Also, be careful not to choose too much weight at the beginning of exercise. When we have enough waist and abdomen strength, we can switch to heavy equipment for exercise. Doing this exercise can also help our lower body keep stable with the help of external forces. In short, only by finding a way to stabilize the lower body can we complete this exercise better.

Russian twist is still difficult for people who have no fitness foundation. If you are a novice, you only need to do 2 or 3 groups at the beginning of the day, each group 15. After getting familiar with it, it can be increased to 25 to 30 groups, and the number of groups per day can be changed to 3 to 5 groups.
