Exercise Description

The incline reverse crunch hits your abs harder than regular crunches by adding gravity resistance. It builds serious core strength and definition.

How To

1. Lie on an incline bench with your head at the higher end, gripping the top for support. 2. Keep your knees bent at 90 degrees and lift them toward your chest using your abs. 3. Squeeze your abs hard at the top while performing the incline reverse crunch movement. 4. Slowly lower your legs back to starting position without letting your feet touch the bench. 5. Complete your incline reverse crunch reps with control - no swinging or bouncing.

Form Tips

• Keep your lower back pressed against the bench during the incline reverse crunch • Focus on pulling with your abs, not swinging your legs up • Hold the squeeze for 1-2 seconds at the top of each incline reverse crunch • Breathe out as you crunch up, breathe in as you lower down

Common Mistakes

• Using momentum instead of abs to swing legs up during incline reverse crunch • Letting your feet touch the bench between reps, which kills the tension • Going too fast with the incline reverse crunch - slow and controlled beats speed every time
