INTERMEDIATE
Incline Reverse Crunch
Incline Reverse Crunch is a challenging core exercise that primarily hits your lower abdominal region and hip flexor.
Instructions
- Lie on your back on an incline bench and hold the edges of the bench next to your head for support. Then bend your knees and pull them toward your chest, stopping when your hips and thighs form a 90-degree angle. This is your starting position.
- Squeeze your core and lift your hips and knees toward your head, lifting your lower back off the bench. Pause at the top for a moment and slowly lower yourself back to the starting position.
Tips
- Avoid lowering too quickly. Descend slowly and with control.
