Kneeling towel anti-rotation press

  • Duration: 7 min
  • Level: Beginner
  • Goal track: Weight loss

Loop a sturdy towel around the leg of a heavy chair pressed firmly against a wall, and kneel upright facing sideways to the anchor point, holding both ends of the towel together at your chest with both hands. This is your starting position. Brace your middle and slowly press both hands straight out in front of your chest, resisting the towel's pull toward the anchor and keeping your hips and shoulders facing forward without rotating. Hold the pressed-out position for 3 seconds, then bring your hands back to your chest with control. Repeat 6 to 8 times, then turn around and repeat facing the other direction.
