Dumbbell Side Bend Instructions

2. Bend to your right side, as far as it feels comfortable, and pause.
3. Repeat for the duration of the set, and then switch sides.

Proper Form And Breathing Pattern

Keep your head and neck in a neutral position, engage your core and inhale as you bend to the side. Face front and don’t lean forward nor back, bend slowly and smoothly to the side and go only as far as it feels comfortable. Pause for a second and then breathe out as you return to the starting position.
