Conseils techniques

Use Your Abs, Not Your Arms

The Russian Twist is an abdominal exercise, not an arm exercise. While twisting, make sure your abs are doing the work. A common mistake is using your arms to 'swing' the weight or your hands from side to side. Instead, keep your arms steady and let your abs do the twisting.

Controlled Movement

Avoid the mistake of rushing through the movement. The key to getting the most out of a Russian Twist is to perform it slowly and with control. This will engage your muscles more effectively and reduce the risk of injury.
