Which is exercise 9 in Preparation Drills?

• A. Forward Lunge
• B. Push-up (Moderate Cadence)
• C. Bent Leg Body Twist
• D. Prone Row

Answer: (C)

In this drill sequence, the order of exercises matters because each move is placed to build from activation to more integrated movement. The ninth exercise in the Preparation Drills list is Bent Leg Body Twist, so that makes it the best choice. This move typically combines a controlled torso twist with a bend in the legs, helping to wake up the obliques and spine while keeping the pelvis stable. It sits in the middle of the progression, bridging lower‑body activation with more demanding upper‑body and rotational work.

The other names describe different drills that appear earlier or later in the sequence, so they don’t occupy the ninth position in the standard order. If you have the official drill sheet, you’ll see Bent Leg Body Twist listed as the ninth item, confirming why it’s the correct pick.
