Workout Wednesday - Turkish Sit-Up

1. Lie on your back: One leg and arm stretched out, and the opposite leg bent with that arm straight up in the air holding a 5-15 lb weight. Make sure weight is directly above shoulder

2. Push up on the forearm resting on the ground, keeping the head/neck straight and weight/shoulder aligned.

3. Continue to push up on the forearm, keeping proper form.

4. Reach your peak! Push all the way up so you are leaning onto your hip on the stretched out leg, and the bent leg's buttox is slightly lifted off the ground.  You should also feel a twist in the waist
