Dumbbell Kneeling Twist Down-Up Raise
Half-kneeling, one dumbbell in both hands travels from low beside the front knee up across the body to overhead on the other side.
How to do it
Setup
Half-kneeling, back knee down, one dumbbell held by the handle in both hands beside the front knee.
Steps
- Lift the bell up and across the body, turning the chest with it.
- Finish with the arms straight overhead on the far side.
- Lower it along the same diagonal back to the front knee.
Common mistakes
Hips turning with the bell: keep them square over the down knee. Arching back to get the bell overhead: ribs down, lighter bell. Front knee caving as you turn: point it over the toes.
Breathing
Exhale lifting, inhale lowering.
