HOW TO DO THE WOOD CHOP EXERCISE?

The setup

The most common type of wood chop involves dumbbells.

1. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart and parallel to each other. Hold a dumbbell with your two hands, it could be at the ends or clasping your hands at the handle.
2. Hold the dumbbell close to your right hip. This implies that the body will be rotated to the right. You should also rotate your feet to the right to avoid straining your back.
