    How to: EZ Bar-Up Down Twist

    1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding the EZ bar at shoulder height.
    2. Engage your core and twist your torso to one side, bringing the bar across your body.
    3. Return to the center and then twist to the other side.
    4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

    Common Mistakes

    • Using momentum instead of engaging the core.
    • Not keeping the back straight during the movement.

    Modifications

    Tips

    • Keep your core engaged throughout the movement.
