Exercise Description

The kneeling band crunch builds core strength and control. It targets your abs while adding resistance to make each rep more effective.

How To

1. Kneel on the floor with a resistance band anchored high above you 2. Hold the band handles with both hands and pull them to your chest 3. Keep your hips still and crunch forward by flexing your spine 4. Squeeze your abs at the bottom of each kneeling band crunch rep 5. Control the return to start position and repeat for your target reps

Form Tips

• Keep constant tension on the band throughout each kneeling band crunch rep • Focus on spinal flexion, not hip movement during the exercise • Breathe out as you crunch down and in as you return up • Start light and build up resistance as your core gets stronger

Common Mistakes

• Using hip flexors instead of abs to perform the kneeling band crunch movement • Letting the band snap you back to start position instead of controlling it • Anchoring the band too low, which reduces the effectiveness of each kneeling band crunch
