Rotary torso

Buy your rotary torso GymWorks Manhattan cheaper thanks to Occasion-Fitness

The GymWorks rotary torso strengthens the abdominal oblique muscles. The rotation is performed while seated, with your shoulders resting against support pads. The back rest helps stabilize the pelvis and keep the torso upright.

The purpose of this machine from the Manhattan collection is to improve range of motion and stabilization through your torso, supporting your spine. The GymWorks rotary torso can be used to isolate the oblique muscles, improve posture and, in some cases, treat vertebral joint problems. However, if you are experiencing back pain, do not use this machine without the guidance of a physical therapist.

Our expert review on the rotary torso Manhattan from the brand GymWorks

Relax your shoulders and focus on engaging your obliques as you rotate your torso. If you hold the shoulder pads too tightly, you will use the muscles of your shoulder girdle instead of your abdominals. Stabilize your pelvis as you rotate by pressing the opposite heel down -- if you are turning to the left, press your right heel downward. Keep the movement slow and controlled through a full range of motion.
