Correct Execution

• tilt as much as possible without losing the stability
• afterwards, guide your upper body above the starting position to the other side or repeat the motion several times at the same side
• make sure that the motion is controlled and consistent
• avoid too fast movements and swinging of the upper body
• repeat this exercise often for an effective oblique workout
