ppo keep telling me to do sme crunches but i dont kno wut they are. wut are they?

Answer 1

Lying on your back, put your knees up in the air so that your thighs are at a right angle to your torso, with your knees bent. If you like you can rest your feet on something, like a chair. Put your hands either behind your head or gently touching the sides of your head.

Now, slowly raise your shoulders off the ground and try to touch your breastbone to your pelvis, breathing out as you go. If you succeed in touching your breastbone to your pelvis, see a doctor immediately.

Although the actual movement will be very small (your upper torso should move through less than 30 degrees) you should try to go as high as possible. Only your spine should bend, your hips should not move. If the hips move, you are exercising the psoas.

Do these fairly slowly to avoid using momentum to help.

You can increase the difficulty of the exercise by extending your hands out behind your head instead of keeping them at the side. Make sure you don't jerk your hands forward to help with the crunch, keep them still.

That is just the upper abs...see site below for more exercises.

Crunches are like doing situps. The only thing is you want to stay tight the whole whille, don't come all the way up, and really feel the muscle working. Sit straight up in a chair and squeeze your abs very hard. You shouldn't come down that much, and that's basically the range of motion. Crunches cut out the extra work. Really squeeze and the biggest don't is to pull your neck with your arms. Remember just squeeze your abs hard until it moves your body.

Answer 3

it is an ab exercise basically like a sit up. You can lay on the floor, bend your kneese, and lock your fingers together and put your hands behind your head (thumbs support the neck). Then find a spot on the clealing to look at and sit up as far as you can then hold for a second then slowly go back down. Do this about 10X, then drop both legs to the same side, and do the same thing 10X, then do the other side. this will work your abs, and is easy to do.
