Abdominal exercise 1 - Weighted side bends


  • Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and take hold of either a dumbbell or a plate. This is the start position.
  • Bend over to one side as far as possible.
  • Slowly raise back up to the straight position, feeling the contraction in the obliques.
  • Repeat for the required amount of reps.
  • Switch sides and repeat.



Weighted side bends target primarily on external and internal oblique muscles, target secondary on rectus abdominus.
