Dumbbell Russian Twist (On Stability Ball)
The ball-bridge Russian twist loaded with a dumbbell: upper back on the ball and hips up, the bell turns from side to side on straight arms.
How to do it
Setup
Upper back on the ball, knees bent at about 90°, hips level with the shoulders, one dumbbell held in both hands straight above the chest.
Steps
- Turn the bell to one side, letting the ball roll under the shoulders.
- Stop when the arms are level with the floor.
- Bring the bell back over the chest and turn it to the other side.
Common mistakes
Hips sagging toward the floor: squeeze the glutes to hold the bridge. Bell dragging the arms past level: turn only as far as you can stop it. Feet sliding as you roll: set them wider.
Breathing
Exhale on each twist, inhale through the middle.
