Torso Rotation
Torso Rotation is a beginner-level exercise in the stretching category that primarily works the abs. It is performed with exercise ball.
How to do it
- 1Stand upright holding an exercise ball with both hands. Extend your arms so the ball is straight out in front of you. This will be your starting position.
- 2Rotate your torso to one side, keeping your eyes on the ball as you move. Now, rotate back to the opposite direction. Repeat for 10-20 repetitions.

Tips and common mistakes
- •Hold each position for 20–40 seconds without bouncing, and breathe calmly.
- •Initiate the pull from the target muscle rather than jerking with body momentum.
- •Prioritize full range of motion over heavy weight with partial reps.
Sets and reps
2–3 sets, holding each position 20–40 seconds. Great as a cool-down or mobility session.
