torso twists
Midsection turning exercises
Torso twists are an exercise where you rotate your upper body from side to side while keeping your hips relatively stable.
Done standing or seated, they target the oblique muscles and improve spinal mobility: I do torso twists to warm up before lifting.
The movement can be performed with or without weight.
