Exercise Description

Cable twist builds strong obliques and improves core rotation power. Perfect for better balance, athletic performance, and a tighter waist.

How To

1. Set cable at chest height and grab handle with both hands 2. Stand sideways to the machine with feet shoulder-width apart 3. Keep arms straight and rotate your torso away from the cable machine 4. Pull the cable twist across your body using only your core muscles 5. Slowly return to start position and repeat for desired reps

Form Tips

• Keep your hips facing forward throughout the entire cable twist movement • Use your core, not your arms, to power the rotation • Move slowly and control the cable twist on both directions • Keep your feet planted firmly on the ground

Common Mistakes

• Using arms instead of core to pull the cable twist • Moving hips instead of just rotating through the torso during cable twist • Going too fast and losing control of the movement
