Seated Russian Twist with Plate

The seated Russian Twist is for the oblique muscles in the abdominals. Start by sitting on floor with torso at a 45 degree angle with knees bent and toes pointed up. Next, use a light d.b. held at arm's length in front of your chest and twist weight from side to side. I like to see continuous motion in the rotation which will ensure the abdominals stay contracted throughout the set.
