Instructions:
- 1Lie on your back on the floor with your knees bent.
- 2Place your hands lightly on the sides of your head.
- 3Crunch up and bring your right elbow towards your left knee, while pulling your knee towards your elbow.
- 4Lower your body and repeat on the other side, bringing your left elbow to your right knee.
- 5Repeat this back and forth motion, alternating sides, in a controlled rhythm.
Tips:
- Do not pull on your neck with your hands during the movement.

- Focus on using your abdominal muscles to make the movements rather than using your arm muscles.
- Make sure to exhale when crunching and inhale when releasing back to the starting position.
