Exercise Description

The reverse crunch targets your lower abs by lifting your hips toward your chest. It builds core strength and helps create that defined lower ab look.

How To

1. Lie flat on your back with arms at your sides, knees bent at 90 degrees, feet off the floor 2. Keep your knees together and pull them toward your chest using your abs 3. Lift your hips off the ground as you perform the reverse crunch movement 4. Squeeze your abs at the top, then slowly lower your hips back to starting position 5. Keep control throughout the entire reverse crunch - don't let momentum take over

Form Tips

• Keep your lower back pressed against the floor during the reverse crunch • Focus on moving your hips, not just your knees, for effective reverse crunch form • Breathe out as you crunch up, breathe in as you lower down • Keep your movements slow and controlled - no bouncing or swinging

Common Mistakes

• Using your hands to pull your head forward instead of letting your abs do the work in the reverse crunch • Moving too fast and losing control of the reverse crunch movement • Not lifting your hips high enough - you need that hip lift to hit your lower abs properly
