How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Sit facing the rope anchor with your knees bent, heels grounded, and both rope ends held together.
  2. 02Lean back only enough to brace the abdominals while keeping a long, neutral spine.
  3. 03Lift the rope ends and move them together to the floor beside one hip.
  4. 04Sweep the ropes across the body to the other hip using controlled trunk rotation rather than jerking through the lower back.
  5. 05Continue alternating sides for the prescribed time while keeping the feet and pelvis steady.
