The rotational movement performed while training with the LTR provides rotational movement of the lower body around a vertical axis. While keeping the shoulders in a fixed position the movement of the lower body helps to provide a larger range of movement that incorporates rotational movement through the lumbar and lower thoracic region and into higher thoracic spinal segments. The goal of this movement is to encourage active, coordinated and controlled rotational movement through the lower back and higher into the thoracic spine.
