Elbow to Knee Crunch
Lying with one ankle across the opposite knee, crunch the elbow to that knee and hold the squeeze.
How to do it
Setup
On your back, one ankle across the opposite knee, far hand behind the head.
Steps
- Crunch the elbow toward the crossed knee.
- Rotate through the ribs, not the arm.
- Finish the side, then switch legs.
Common mistakes
Pulling the head across: the hand rests; the shoulder travels. Hips lifting: they stay planted. Tiny reps: reach the knee or slow down until you can.
Breathing
Exhale on the crunch, inhale lowering.
