Side crunches target your obliques and build a stronger core. They help create that defined waistline while improving stability for daily activities.
1. Lie on your side with knees slightly bent and bottom arm supporting your head 2. Place your top hand behind your head or across your chest for the side crunch setup 3. Contract your obliques and lift your upper body toward your hip in a crunching motion 4. Hold the side crunch position for one second at the top of the movement 5. Lower back down slowly and repeat before switching to the other side
• Keep your neck neutral during the side crunch - don't pull on your head with your hand • Focus on using your obliques to lift, not momentum or your arm muscles • Move slowly and controlled through the entire range of motion for better side crunch results • Keep your hips stacked and don't let your body roll forward or backward
• Pulling on your neck with your hand instead of using your obliques to power the side crunch • Moving too fast and using momentum rather than controlled muscle contractions • Letting your body roll during the side crunch movement instead of staying in the side position
