Elastics Oblique Corkscrews

Video coming soon...

The elastics Oblique corkscrews workout is designed to primarily engage the Obliques.

By using elastics, the workout adds resistance to the twisting motion, intensifying the Oblique engagement.

While the workout may also activate auxiliary muscles, the elastics’ main role is to target the Obliques.

With its focus on the Obliques, the elastics Oblique corkscrews workout provides an effective and targeted core exercise.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and your core engaged.
Hold an elastic band with both hands, palms facing down, and bring it behind your head, keeping your elbows bent and close to your ears.
Extend your arms upward, fully straightening them while keeping your elbows close to your ears.
Slowly rotate your torso to the right, keeping your hips facing forward and your lower body stable.
As you rotate, feel the tension in the elastic band and engage your oblique muscles on the right side of your body.
Return to the starting position by rotating your torso back to the center, maintaining control and tension in the elastic band.
Repeat the rotation to the left side, engaging your oblique muscles on the left side of your body.

Focus on proper alignment: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and engage your core. Keep your back straight and your shoulders relaxed throughout the exercise. This will help you maintain stability and target your oblique muscles effectively.
Choose the right resistance level: Select an elastic band that provides enough resistance to challenge your obliques, but not so much that it compromises your form. Gradually increase the resistance as you get stronger to continue progressing and stimulating muscle growth.
Control the movement: Slow and controlled movements are key to engaging your obliques and maximizing the benefits of this exercise. Avoid using momentum or jerking motions. Instead, focus on smoothly rotating your torso from side to side, feeling the tension in your oblique muscles throughout the entire range of motion.
Breathe properly: Inhale deeply before you begin the movement, and as you rotate your torso, exhale slowly and fully. This rhythmic breathing pattern helps you maintain focus, oxygenate your muscles, and engage your core effectively. Remember to breathe naturally and avoid holding your breath, as it can hinder your performance and limit the effectiveness of the exercise.
Stay consistent and progressive: Like any exercise, consistency is key to seeing results. Aim to perform the oblique corkscrews exercise at least two to three times per week,
