A fun movement to work & test abdominal control through a full body rotation. Great for a warm up and just building body awareness.⠀ ・・・⠀ 🎥 By @dr.nick.dpt ⇐ Thank you 🙌⠀ ・・・⠀ ❎ CAN YOU DO THIS ON BOTH SIDES OF YOUR BODY?✅

🏝️ This one is going to look ridiculous. But, I love it for assessment and for a home program. Most people are probably going to have more difficulty doing this on one side. It's not abnormal. We all tend to have asymmetry. I tend to find that a lot of unilateral rotation athletes have a lot of difficulty going away from their dominant side (baseball pitchers, golfers, etc) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🌴 To perform it correctly: Start with your leg or arm vertical. Roll towards the opposite side. Try to only use that extremity to move. If you're using your right leg, don't use your arms to help you roll over. If you do it correctly, your body should roll over gently as you reach your arm/leg far enough to move your center of mass. Try to be smooth with the motion and control it. This shouldn't hurt.
