Hi, have you tried NOT FUCKING ADVERTISING all over other peoples videos you fuck tards!..NO ONE falls for your scams, dickwad!
Oh and good video.
I thought those were Russian (Alternating Floor Oblique) Twists:D
This is one of my favorite exercises to work the obliques thanks for sharing!
Hi, was wondering if someone could help me out. I’ve recently started working on abs, what weight would you recommend for this exercise (bare in mind I’m a beginner). I was thinking of purchasing a 5kg plate?
Thanks for all your work on these videos Scott. Really helpful for us guys just coming into fitness world and looking for fast, simple and effective help! Sub’d
The side-to-side part isn’t really hard, but just sitting in this position kills my lower back. I don’t think I could sit like that for more than 10 or 15 seconds.
I always thought the exercise needed to be slowed down. Is it more effective at this speed?
yep. i know the bad fat is the reason that stopping 6 pack coming outside even we work out well. Listen to this Do you know about the 7 odd foods that kill belly fat if you don’t know about them you must see this. if you are serious go for it now bit.ly/12XX4Xr?=xqdvh
oh wow thanks so muj… i thought something was wrong with my twist coz my legs kept slightly swaying from side to side too.. so jus to clarify things, does our arms have to be perfectly still in a straight line all throughout the motion and just our torso should be twisting??

This oblique twist or Russian twist is one of my favorite exercises for core but I saw some videos which claim that it destroys gradually, our spines over the time.
How high did We go in weight with side exercise So you Can take 8-10. Thanks for your always great videos
I’m not so sure this is the best for your spine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZj6LRjSt30

u’re right. even i was very sad since i workout well for abs but nothing was coming. And I heard that most of the celebrities used to follow to kill their belly using this 7 food items. get to know here >>> bit.ly/172slff?=tgkyq
This exercise is relatively easy but how do you exhale so quickly? I can’t find the breathing balance
I really want to exercise well and build up my abs, but I have a back problem called kyphosis, even a little scoliosis and lordosis as well. And with my back problems, I feel like I’m always doing the exercises wrong because I can’t help but have my back arched. If anyone out there has tips for people like me to get it right, please reply! Thank you.
Hey Scott!
I have a question. Why is it that you keep your head straight when you do this exercise? I have recently started doing it and I find little different between the two methods. Also, would it be beneficial to put your feet on wither side of a stationary object so you can keep the motion isolated in your upper body?
Thanks, Scott
The last time I bought an encyclopedia set was in 2005. It was a 2 cd-rom Britannica set for only 5 bucks from a discount electronics store.
This guy don’t know what he’s talking about. The exercise he is doing in this is Russian Twists.
How many should you do? I really don’t understand sets and reps for abs!:/
Sometimes I reference these older vids and they are just as helpful. BTW: 0:25 LOL!

Yo! Scott Herman oblique twist is the only one i do cause all other oblique workouts are uncomfortable. If i stick to doing the twist only will i still get shredded comic book obliques? or will i have to mix it up for great results?Cause i really hate other oblique workouts.
