Torso rotation with arm raises using a kinesis machine

Torso rotation with arm raises on the kinesis machine.

The movement is performed by:

• abdominal muscles, shoulders

Additionally works:

• back, glutes, arms, legs

Starting position:

Grab the handle of the machine (the one suspended at the bottom) and stand on your right side to the machine. Tighten your abs and straighten your back. Place your feet shoulder-width apart. Place your hands with the handle next to your right hip.

Movement: Dynamically rotate your entire body to the left (only your left leg doesn't rotate!) while simultaneously raising your arms to the left and up. Slowly return to the starting position. Repeat, and then practice standing on your other side to the machine.

Directions: Feet shoulder-width apart. Back straight, abs tight. Arms rotate with your torso.

You will need kinesis to perform this exercise.
