How to perform

Secure a resistance band at waist height. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding the band extended in front. Engage your core, slightly bend knees. Twist your torso, pulling the band across your body while keeping arms straight. Return to center with control, then twist to the opposite side. Repeat, maintaining band tension.
