Abdominal Crunch
1. Start out by lying on your back. 2. Hands are crossed on your chest. Lie flat on the floor, knees bent. Always bend your knees because it helps support your lower back. If you prefer, place your hands behind your head making sure not to strain your neck. 3. Slowly raise yourself up using your abdominals. Press your lower back to the floor. As you reach the top of the crunch, exhale gradually. Then slowly lower your back down to the flow while inhaling.
Reverse Crunch

Keep your back straight. 4. Raise hips slowly, about 2 inches off the floor. Keep your hips steady. Avoid rolling them backwards. 5. Hold position for 2-3 seconds tightly squeezing or crunching your ab muscles while keeping your head and shoulders on the floor. 6. Then slowly lower hips back to the floor. Repeat the process. 7. Repeat 8 to 25 times, resting for about 1 - 2 minutes between sets. Perform 1-3 sets of reverse crunches.
