TRX Side Bend
Holding the TRX handles overhead on straight arms, feet together, push the hips out to one side so the body bends into an arc, then pull back to straight.
How to do it
Setup
Standing under the anchor, a handle in each hand overhead, arms straight, feet together.
Steps
- Push the hips out to one side, letting the straps take some weight.
- Keep the feet planted and the arms straight overhead.
- Pull the hips back under the shoulders from the waist; switch sides after the set.
Common mistakes
Bending the arms to hang: they stay straight; the waist does the work. Feet sliding with the hips: plant them together. Dropping into the bend: push the hips out as slowly as you pull them back.
Breathing
Inhale bending, exhale returning.
