The standing barbell twist targets your obliques and core. It builds rotational strength and helps create a defined waistline while improving athletic power.
1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a barbell across your upper back like a back squat 2. Keep your core tight and hips facing forward throughout the standing barbell twist movement 3. Slowly rotate your torso to the right as far as comfortable, keeping your lower body still 4. Return to center, then rotate to the left side with the same controlled motion 5. Complete the standing barbell twist for your desired reps, alternating sides each rep
• Keep your hips and legs locked in place - only your upper body should move during the standing barbell twist • Move slowly and controlled - never use momentum or swing the weight • Breathe out as you twist and breathe in as you return to center position • Start light with the standing barbell twist until you master the form completely
• Twisting too fast or using momentum instead of controlled muscle movement • Moving the hips and legs instead of isolating the core during the standing barbell twist • Using too much weight before mastering proper standing barbell twist form and technique
