Exercise Type:
Core Rotate
Contraindications:
None
Equipment:
Floor Based
Applicability:
Focus
Superset?:
No
Sprint-able?:
Yes

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Control the return — the eccentric is where the core works hardest.
  2. 2. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
  3. 3. Engage the core before initiating any movement.

Regression:

Slow the tempo to a 3-count rotation and 3-count return before adding speed or resistance.

Progression:

Combine with a lower-body load to create a full-chain rotational pattern.

Common Problems:

One arm going slack mid-rotation — keep both arms engaged on the implement throughout.
