Instructions

1. Begin by sitting on the ground with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor while holding a dumbbell in each hand.

2. Lean back slightly and balance on your sit bones, engaging your core to stabilize your body.

3. Lift your feet off the floor and extend your arms out to your sides at shoulder height, palms facing down.

4. Twist your torso to the right, bringing the right hand down to the floor beside you and the left hand across your body, without letting your feet touch the ground.

5. Without pausing, quickly swing the weights in the opposite direction, bringing your left hand down to the floor beside you and the right hand across your body.

6. Next, bring the weights back to the center and extend your arms forward at shoulder height.

7. Open your arms back out to the sides and then bring them forward again, keeping your core engaged and feet lifted throughout the movement.

8. Continue alternating the side twists and the forward arm extensions for the desired number of repetitions.

Remember to maintain control of the movement throughout the exercise, focusing on engaging your abdominals and obliques while keeping your shoulders and arms active. Adjust the weight of the dumbbells to match your fitness level.
