The Russian Kettlebell Twist or Russian Hot Potato is a great exercise to target the muscles of your core. Give this a try after a set of swings or snatches when your breathing is already rapid and I guarantee you will hate me when your done.
Points to Remember
- Lean back until your heals start ot come off the ground.
- Synchronise your breathing with each passing of the kettlebell from side to side.
- Keep your glutes and you abs tight.
- Allow your hips to rotate as you pass the kettlebell back and forth.
- Perform for high reps or for time.
Yours in Health
