Description

Sit on the floor with a ball placed between your knees. Hold a weight about 10 cm away from your chest. Lean back slightly while keeping your spine straight. Slightly lift your feet off the ground without crossing them, and squeeze the ball between your knees. Twist your torso to the right, then return to the center before twisting to the left. Ensure that your chest and hands turn together with each rotation, and try to touch the floor with the weight during each rotation.
