Twist & Side-Plank

1. Start by lying on your side with your legs extended and stacked on top of one another, and your elbow directly under your shoulder.

2. Engage your core and lift your hips off the ground, forming a straight line from your ankles to your shoulders, entering the side plank position.

3. Extend your top arm towards the ceiling, keeping your body in a straight line.

4. Now, rotate your torso forward and bring your top arm under your body. Your gaze can follow your hand to enhance the twist.

5. Reverse the movement and return to the starting side plank position with your arm extended upwards.

6. Perform the exercise for the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other side.

7. Remember to keep your core engaged and avoid sagging your hips throughout the exercise.

8. Breathe out as you twist and in when you return to the starting position.

Note: Make sure to perform the exercise in a controlled manner and avoid any jerky movements. Adjust the difficulty by increasing repetitions, hold time, or adding a weight to the free hand if needed, but maintain proper form throughout.
