this may be silly, but are you suppose to do both sides in 1 set? and are your knees suppose to hurt when doing it? Im doing 1 set of 15reps at 20lbs.

this is the machine where you sit on your knees and you twist side to side. (just to make sure you know what im talking about)

    I do these from time to time, and I do each side once before I say I'm done with a set, so technically (since I usually do four sets) I end up doing what some might think of as eight sets.

    Body should be pretty tight in doing them so that the core is the main focus. I've had a time or two where I lost concentration and ended up with a slight stitch in a hamstring, though.
