Technik-Tipps
Side bends should be performed slowly and with control. Avoid jerky or fast movements, which can lead to injury. Instead, focus on smoothly bending to the side, hold for a moment, then return to the starting position.
Another common mistake is to look down or up while performing the side bend. Keep your gaze forward to maintain the alignment of your neck and spine.
The side bend primarily targets the obliques, but it also works the entire core. Make sure to engage your core muscles throughout the exercise to maximize its benefits and protect your lower back.
