Weighted Plate Standing Hands Torsion
Standing with a plate held upright in front by its rim, both hands turn it back and forth like a steering wheel, the forearms doing the twisting.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall, a plate held upright in front of the hips by its top rim in both hands, elbows bent.
Steps
- Turn the plate one way like a wheel, the wrists rotating.
- Turn it back the other way.
- Keep the elbows at the sides and the grip tight.
Common mistakes
Turning with the shoulders and torso: only the forearms rotate. Letting the plate slip in the fingers: pinch the rim hard. Rushing the turns: slow and even both ways.
Breathing
Steady throughout; never held.
