90-To-90 Torso Twist

Setup

• Sit on the mat with both legs bent at 90-degree angles in front of you.

• Your front leg should be bent with the shin parallel to your torso and the hip externally rotated.

• Your back leg should be bent with the hip internally rotated, pointing away from the body.

Execution

• Place your hand behind you for support on the side of the internally rotated hip (the back leg).

• Maintain an upright torso and engage your core for stability.

• Initiate the rotation by lifting the back knee upward while keeping the foot pinned to the floor.

• Focus on driving the hip into internal rotation, bringing the back knee as close to the floor as possible while maintaining the 90-degree angle at the knee.

• Keep the movement controlled and deliberate, emphasizing the stretch in the hip capsule.

• Return to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching sides.
