How to turn avatar object programmatically without sending input to the animator?

This code is the part of tutorial, controlling avatar object.

1) I'm trying to disable the code that sends rotation input to the animator. 2) I want to control to turning "programmatically"

     void FixedUpdate() {
 
         float inputForward=0f;
         float inputTurn=0f;
 
         if (cinput.enabled)
         {
             inputForward = cinput.Forward;
             inputTurn = cinput.Turn;
         }
         
         //switch turn around if going backwards
         if(inputForward < 0f)
         inputTurn = -inputTurn;
 
       if (CharacterCommon.CheckGroundNear(this.transform.position, jumpableGroundNormalMaxAngle, 0.1f, 1f, out closeToJumpableGround))
             isGrounded = true;
 
         this.transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * cinput.Forward * Time.deltaTime * forwardMaxSpeed);
         this.transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, cinput.Turn * Time.deltaTime * turnMaxSpeed);
        rbody.MovePosition(rbody.position +  this.transform.forward * inputForward * Time.deltaTime * forwardMaxSpeed);
 
         rbody.MoveRotation(rbody.rotation * Quaternion.AngleAxis(inputTurn * Time.deltaTime * turnMaxSpeed, Vector3.up));
 
 
 //        anim.SetFloat("velx", inputTurn);  <<--- Disable sending the rotation input to the animator.
         anim.SetFloat("vely", inputForward);
         anim.SetBool("isFalling", !isGrounded);
 
        
         //clear for next OnCollisionStay() callback
         isGrounded = false;
 
 
     }

I was advised as not using turn animation is often better, but now I'm not sure this is better.. I don't see any big improvement and programmatically controlling the turn seems unachievable. Does anyone have idea how to implement this??? Thanks
