If there are supersets once completed first exercise and enter in weight/reps would be a lot more user friendly if the next exercise automatically appeared rather than having to manually select to initiate next exercise, the location where to initiate is not very touch sensitive therefore having to try multiple times, it ruins the flow.

GOAL
Athletic advantage, injury prevention and oblique shredder

DETAILS
1. Set up a resistance band to the lowest height [note you can also set to shoulder height or above for other angles]. 
2. Grab the end with both arms extended. 
3. Start with shoulders, hips, and feet square/straight forward. 
4. Rotate the torso away from the anchor point, keeping the hips square. 
5. Then, chop that wood by rotating torso towards your hip and slightly towards the ground.
6. Squeeze abs & exhale. Return slowly to start position. Repeat. 

Pro-Tips: Ribs are tucked and you compress/crunch your abs a little. Back foot pivots as you chop. Hips can rotate or stay stationary, whichever gives you a better ab squeeze.

- Rotate Torso
- Tuck Ribs

3. As you breathe in, come down slowly until you feel the bar on your lower chest.
4. After a second pause, bring the bar back to the starting position as you breathe out and push the bar using your chest muscles.
