Barbell Leg Twist Press
Lying on the floor with a barbell pressed up over the chest, the straight legs lower from vertical to one side and back, then to the other.
How to do it
Setup
Lying on the back, a barbell held at arm's length over the chest, legs straight up.
Steps
- Lower both legs together toward one side.
- Keep the bar locked over the chest and the shoulders down.
- Bring the legs back up and lower them to the other side.
Common mistakes
Dropping the legs too far: lower only as far as the shoulders stay down. Bar drifting toward the face: keep it stacked over the chest. Bending the knees mid-set: keep the legs long throughout.
Breathing
Exhale rising, inhale lowering.
