Kettlebell Russian Twist

• Lean back slightly so your torso and thighs form a V shape, engaging your core to maintain balance.
• Twist your torso to the right, bringing the kettlebell to your right side, keeping your arms straight.
• Then, twist your torso to the left, bringing the kettlebell to your left side, again keeping your arms straight.
• Repeat these movements for the desired number of repetitions, always maintaining a strong, engaged core.

• Controlled Movement: Rotate your torso from side to side, moving the kettlebell across your body. It's important to move in a controlled manner; don't rush the movement or use momentum to swing the kettlebell. This can lead to improper form and potential injury.
• Engage Your Core: Your abdominal muscles should be doing most of the work. Make sure you are engaging your core throughout the entire movement. A common mistake is relying too much on arm strength instead of the core.
• Choose the Right Weight: Use a weight that is challenging but manageable. If the kettlebell is too heavy, you may strain your back or neck. On
