How to perform
- Sit on the floor with knees bent and lean back slightly, holding an AguaForce weight with both hands at your chest
- Lift your feet slightly off the floor for a greater challenge, or keep them planted for stability
- Rotate your torso to bring the weight to one side of your hips, then rotate to the other side
- Continue alternating sides with control
Tips
- Keep your chest lifted and back straight rather than rounding
- Move through your torso, not just your arms
