The Seated Russian Twist

Sit up straight on your mat with your legs stretched out in front of you. Put the rubber band around your feet, cross them over and hold onto the ends. Twist your upper body, stretching the elastic. Then twist the opposite way. Keep your chest up and your back straight.

Do 3 sets of 24 repetitions. Rest for 30 seconds in between sets.

This exercise helps to tone and strengthen the muscles that run down your sides. These are called oblique muscles.

Do you find that your active lifestyle causes or is hindered by sore muscles or stiff joints? Atrosan Devil’s Claw helps to relieve muscle and joint pain throughout the body, which is great for chronic, long term pain.

Alternatively, Atrogel Arnica Gel is a topical pain relief that can be applied directly to affected areas to soothe stiffness and pain – perfect for when you've overdone it!

Remember to always follow a doctor or physiotherapist’s advice when it comes to exercising with an injury or joint condition.
