SAXON SIDE BEND



3 tips for perfect SAXON SIDE BEND

HITS: The obliques 
This old-school move is just as effective as when it was first
developed more than 100 years ago by strongman Arthur Saxon. Not only will it really target your obliques but the overhead press hold will build your core stability.

1 Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and press two light
dumbbells overhead, keeping your arms slightly bent. For stability ensure you brace your glutes and core.

2 With the dumbbells pressed overhead, bend over as far as possible to your left side—keeping the weights under control.

3 Return to the upright position then repeat the same movement to your right side. You should feel it hit your obliques.


TRY 4 SETS OF 8-10 REPS EACH SIDE
