Reverse crunches on the incline bench
On the weight bench, traditional crunches can be effortlessly performed. However, there is also the option to execute the Incline Reverse Crunch on the incline bench, targeting your lower abdominal muscles in a reversed manner.
Body position
During the Reverse Crunches on the incline bench, lie down on a bench at an approximate 45-degree angle. Keep your back straight. Grip the bench firmly on the sides with your hands. Elevate your legs so that your thighs are perpendicular to your back, while your shins hover parallel to the incline bench. This sets you up for the Reverse Crunches on the incline bench.
Movement execution
To initiate the Reverse Crunches, lift your buttocks upward. The lower back also rises into the air. While the legs maintain their position, the knees draw toward your head during the upward motion.
