Barbell Torque (Especially for ZiR Red).

Do you remember that thread a while back that had everyone trying to guess what you meant by holding a barbell and bending to the right and left while it was pressed against a wall? Well, i think i found a visual image of what you were trying to explain to us. And it comes with a great description as well.

The more and more i read Men's Health (mostly online), the more and more i begin to love them.

Here is the link: Men's Health - Power Training - Rotational Core - Barbell Torque

And here are the pics:

Yh ive seen that on an excercise directory, havent given it a go yet though lol

From what i remember, Zir is enamored with this exercise and often advises clients to do it.

It's the best ab and core exercise i've ever done.

put about 2 or 3 plates on there and go to town for heavy reps and ur gonna feel it. or even 1 plate ur gonna def feel it.

I love it.

I'd recommend it to anybody serious about training

it's essentially like the "wood chopper" but with more weight and more ROM.

What I call "barbell swings".

One of my favorite!

yea I thought it look like a high chop never done them with a barbell

**ZackKnight** · 04-26-2008, 09:04 PM

Most I've done is 2 plates and a 25 for a few reps. It's rough brah, but it's fantastic

**under construction** · 04-26-2008, 09:41 PM

**ZackKnight** · 04-26-2008, 09:45 PM
