Crunch with Medicine Ball
Expert Advice
Focus on using your abs to lift your torso rather than relying on momentum or the weight of the medicine ball.
How-to-do Steps
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
- Hold a medicine ball with both hands close to your chest.
- Contract your abs and lift your shoulders off the floor, bringing the medicine ball towards your knees.
- Pause at the top of the contraction, then slowly lower back down to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
