How do you perform a Cycling Crunch?
- Lie on your back on the floor or on an exercise mat.
- Press your lower back into the floor and keep your legs stretched horizontally above the floor.
- Place hands behind head, fingers intertwined if desired.
- Bend your left knee and bring it toward your chest.
- Rotate your upper body to the left and bring your right elbow to your left knee.
- Make sure the movement comes from your torso, not just your elbows.
- Keep your other leg straight above the ground.
- Return and repeat on the other side.
- Be careful not to put too much strain on your neck by pulling it.
Common faults
- Feet tap the floor during the exercise.
- Leg not stretched enough.
