How To Do It
1. Sit on the floor with your knees bent to form a 90-degree angle. Your torso should be at a 45-degree angle with the floor.
2. Hold a small weight in your hands (optional) or clasp your hands in front of your abdomen.
3. Keeping your torso and abs as still and as tight as possible, rotate your hands (or the weight) from side to side. Each time you return to center, that’s one rep.
