Instructions:
- 1Start by selecting the resistance on the machine. The resistance should be enough to challenge you but not so much that it compromises your form
- 2Grasp the handles of the rope and with your back facing the machine, move a few steps forward
- 3Bend at the waist and stabilize your lower body while keeping your arms straight above your head
- 4Perform a crunch by bending at the waist and bringing your elbows down to your thighs
- 5Return to the starting position by slowly extending your waist and lifting your upper body
Tips:
- Keep your head and neck in a neutral position throughout the movement
- Ensure that the movement is controlled and steady, don't rush
- Concentrate on squeezing the abdominal muscles as you perform the crunch
- Avoid pulling with your arms, let your abs do the work
