# Crunch
|
||||
|
||||
The floor ab curl — peel the shoulder blades off the mat, squeeze, and
|
||||
lower. Short range, all abs.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Category:** Main circuit
|
||||
- **Type:** Spinal flexion (upper)
|
||||
- **Targets:** Rectus abdominis
|
||||
- **Prescription:** 3 × 15–20, slow
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
Lie on your back, knees bent, feet flat. Fingertips lightly behind the
|
||||
ears, elbows wide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Execution
|
||||
|
||||
1. Exhale and curl the ribs toward the pelvis until the shoulder blades
|
||||
leave the floor.
|
||||
2. Squeeze the abs hard at the top for a beat.
|
||||
3. Lower the shoulders back down without letting the head rest.
|
||||
|
||||
## Cues
|
||||
|
||||
- It's a curl, not a sit-up — the lower back stays on the mat.
|
||||
- Chin off the chest; the hands never pull the head.
|
||||
- Exhale on the way up to deepen the contraction.
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Mistakes
|
||||
|
||||
- Yanking the neck with the hands.
|
||||
- Sitting all the way up with the hip flexors.
|
||||
- Racing through reps with momentum.
|
||||
|
||||
## Progression
|
||||
|
||||
Slow the tempo and add a pause at the top; hold a small plate on the
|
||||
chest, or move to the Abdominal machine for stack-loaded flexion.
