Cable Crunch
Kneeling under the cable, crunch the elbows toward the thighs with the abs, hips still.
How to do it
Setup
Kneel facing the stack, rope held at the temples, hips fixed over the knees.
Steps
- Crunch the elbows toward the thighs with the abs.
- Keep the hips still – only the spine curls.
- Return until the abs stretch, no stack rest.
Common mistakes
Sitting back onto the heels: that is a hip hinge, not a crunch; hips stay put. Pulling with the arms: they only hold the rope. Standing too light: this one LIKES weight; the form gates it.
Breathing
Exhale on the crunch, inhale on the stretch.
