Instructions
1. Sit on the floor with your knees bent and feet flat, holding a weight plate or dumbbell close to your chest.
2. Lean back slightly, balancing on your sit bones, with your arms bent holding the weight close to your body.
3. Engage your core and lift your feet slightly off the floor, keeping your knees bent.
4. Inhale to prepare, then exhale as you pull your knees towards your chest and bring your upper body towards your knees, with the weight remaining close to your chest.
5. Inhale and lower your upper body and legs back down to the starting position without letting your feet touch the floor.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, ensuring a controlled motion throughout the exercise.
Remember to maintain a strong core engagement throughout the movement to protect the lower back and to maximize the effectiveness of the crunch. Adjust the weight to allow for proper form and to avoid any strain on the neck or back.
