Technik-Tipps
The Russian Twist is a core exercise, so it's important to engage your core throughout the movement. A common mistake is to use your arms to generate the twist, but this will reduce the effectiveness of the exercise on your core. Instead, focus on using your abdominal muscles to twist your torso from side to side.
When performing the Russian Twist, it's crucial to use controlled, deliberate movements. Avoid the mistake of rushing through the exercise or using momentum to swing from side to side, as this can lead to injury and reduces the effectiveness of the workout.
