Scorpion twists
Beginner10 repsNo jumping
How to do it
- Lie face down with your arms stretched out to the sides, palms down, and your chin resting toward the floor.
- Lift one leg, bend the knee, and sweep it up and across your body toward the opposite side - reaching the foot toward the floor behind you like a scorpion curling its tail - then bring it back and repeat with the other leg, alternating sides.
- Keep your chest and arms anchored to the floor and let the twist travel through your hips and lower back, going only as far as the stretch stays comfortable.
