Journalists from Tinkoff Magazine spoke about the benefits of performing the “Russian twist” exercise. This is reported in the publication’s material.
According to the source, the rectus and oblique abdominal muscles are actively involved in this exercise, which allows for a comprehensive impact on the abs. The hip flexors also work to maintain a static position.
To perform it, you need to sit down with your knees bent. Next, you need to lift your feet off the floor, take a dumbbell with both hands, bend your arms and place them in front of your chest. As you exhale, you need to twist your body to the right, pointing your hands towards the floor. As you inhale, you need to return to the starting position and repeat the movement to the left.
On December 23, fitness trainer Daria Knyazeva revealed the secret of the hip hinch exercise. The expert said that it makes walking easier, as it allows you to work out the movement in a controlled manner and improve mobility. In addition, it reduces the load on the spine and trains the buttocks.
