Rotary Torso User's Guide

The Rotary Torso targets the internal and external obliques, with a lesser
degree of emphasis on the rectus abdominis muscle. These muscles are
fundamentally involved in rotational movements and force transfer across the
body. Real life examples of the rectus abdominis muscle in action range from a
baseball pitcher throwing a ball to shoveling snow.
