Oblique crunches “knee-elbow”
An ideal exercise that works all the abdominal muscles.
- Stay in a prone position with your hands behind your head.
- Spread your elbows to the sides. Don’t press them to your head.
- Lower your legs to the floor and move them towards your buttocks so that the angle between your thighs and shins is about 60 degrees.
- As you exhale, begin to twist the upper body, aiming your chin towards the pubic bone, consistently lifting your head, neck, and shoulders from the floor, without lifting your shoulder blades. Pause at the top point and then perform twists alternately – right elbow to the left leg, left elbow to the right.
- As with crunches, do not allow your chin to be pressed into your neck.
Repeat 10-15 times on each side.
