Instructions

1. Attach the suspension trainer to an overhead anchor point and adjust it to high length.

2. Stand facing away from the anchor point with your feet hip-width apart.

3. Grasp the suspension trainer handles with both hands and extend your arms overhead. Ensure there is tension in the straps.

4. Lean forward, hinging at the hips and keeping your arms and back straight, as shown in the first image.

5. As you lean forward to a comfortable stretch, rotate your torso to one side, pulling the opposite side handle down and allowing your body to twist naturally.

6. Hold for a moment at the twist and then return to the starting position.

7. Repeat the movement, alternating sides for each rep.

8. Make sure to maintain a tight core throughout the exercise to protect your lower back and to ensure the twisting motion originates from your core muscles.
