Directions: Starting on your back with knees slightly bent and holding the kettlebell by the horns, perform a situp and then rotate your chest and shoulders 90 degrees while keeping your elbows tight to your ribs. Once you've fully rotated, touch the kettlebell down softly beside your hip. Pick the kettlebell up and rotate 180 degrees to the opposite hip and touch the kb down again. Pick the kb back up and rotate 90 degrees back to center, recline to the floor and repeat the process. This time, start by rotating the opposite direction as you did previously.
Make it easier: place your feet under something heavy to assist the situp Make it harder: elevate for your feet to make the move more challenging
Make it better: hold the bell bottom side up for a deeper rotation
