Muscles Targeted: Lower Rectus Abdominis(Abs), External Oblique, Internal Olique

Points to Remember

1. Keep your head and neck in line with the spine. Don’t let your chin touch your chest. This takes the focus off the abs and can strain your neck.
2. Most people forget the negative or lowering part of the crunch. Fight gravity on the way down to really get a burn.

To make this tougher, you can move the legs horizontally over each other. See in this video
