Oblique Crunch
Knees dropped to one side, curl the shoulder toward the opposite hip.
How to do it
Setup
On your back, knees dropped together to ONE side, shoulders flat.
Steps
- Curl the shoulders straight up toward the ceiling.
- Feel the top-side obliques fold.
- Lower and finish the side, then switch.
Common mistakes
Twisting toward the knees: the curl is STRAIGHT up; the drop did the twisting. Shoulders peeling unevenly: both rise together. Neck leading: chest first.
Breathing
Exhale on the crunch, inhale lowering.
