Seated Russian twists

Hi there,

I'm wondering what constitutes a rep in seated russian twists.  Is going both right, center, and left 1 rep or does each side count as a rep?

Thanks very much!

Hi Casey,

Each side counts as one rep. The follow along videos will help you keep the count as well.

Thanks Everett!

How much weight should one use? Should one rather progress in reps or in weight?

So far using 3kg with 5x18r. thinking if i should click 'easy' or choose another weight?

Pauline Taube

Hi Michael,

3kg is fine. Focus on increasing reps until you reach mastery before you try to add more weight :) 

Michael Vetter

Hi Pauline,

 

Thanks :) I'll do that.

On another note: mastery is when I can do it like in the video and for the highest amount it will get before changing to another exersize? ie the highest step?

Pauline Taube

Exactly ;) 

Feel free to submit a form check when testing for mastery!
