How to do it
Start standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, clasping your hands together and holding them extended oposite your chest.
Rotate your torso and simultaneously bring your hands diagonally across your body towards your right hip, bending your knees slightly as you turn.
Keep your arms extended and pivot your right foot as you rotate to protect your knee from strain.
Return to the starting position in a controlled manner, bringing your hands back opposite your chest.
Form tips
Engage your core throughout the movement to stabilize your spine and enhance power.
Pivot on your feet during the rotation to ensure a full range of motion and to reduce stress on your knees.
Focus on exhaling as you chop down and inhaling as you return to the starting position.
Maintain a slight bend in your knees throughout the exercise to aid in balance and prevent strain on your joints.
