Instructions:

  • 1Lay down on the floor with your workout band looped around your feet.
  • 2Pull your knees up to your chest, then extend your legs straight out.
  • 3As you pull your knees back to your chest, rotate your core so your opposite elbow comes toward the knee that is pulling in.
  • 4Alternate sides for a cycling crunch motion.
  • 5Continue the motion, alternating legs and elbows.

Tips:

  • Maintain a smooth and controlled movement to work your core muscles effectively.
  • Avoid pulling on your neck or head during the crunch motion.
  • Keep your lower back pressed firmly against the floor throughout the exercise.
  • Engage your core throughout the entire movement, rather than relying solely on your hip flexors or obliques.
