How to do it

  1. 1Secure your legs at the end of the decline bench and slowly lay down on the bench.
  2. 2Raise your upper body off the bench until your torso is about 35-45 degrees if measured from the floor.
  3. 3Put one hand beside your head and the other on your thigh. This will be your starting position.
  4. 4Raise your upper body slowly from the starting position while turning your torso to the left. Continue crunching up as you exhale until your right elbow touches your left knee. Hold this contracted position for a second. Tip: Focus on keeping your abs tight and keeping the movement slow and controlled.
  5. 5Lower your body back down slowly to the starting position as you inhale.
  6. 6After completing one set on the right for the recommended amount of repetitions, switch to your left side. Tip: Focus on really twisting your torso and feeling the contraction when you are in the up position.
