Lever Seated Crunch (chest pad)

Expert Advice

Focus on using your abdominal muscles to pull the weight rather than relying on momentum or arm strength.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Adjust the seat so that the chest pad is at the right height for your torso.
  2. Sit on the machine with your chest against the pad.
  3. Grasp the handles and place your forearms against the pads.
  4. Exhale and contract your abs to curl your upper body towards your knees.
  5. Hold the contraction briefly, then inhale as you slowly return to the starting position.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
