Exercise
Machine Crunch
A trunk-flexion exercise used to train the abdominal muscles through a controlled shortening movement.
Technique
01
Adjust the machine before loading it so the joints line up comfortably with the movement.
02
Start with the pelvis stable.
03
Bring the rib cage toward the pelvis rather than pulling with the neck.
04
Exhale as the trunk flexes if it helps you contract the abs.
05
Use a range you can control without momentum.
06
Return slowly instead of dropping back into the start.
