Get the six-pack abs that you have always wanted when you achieve the correct form and repetition with the cable seated crunch.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Weight bench with cable

1. Sit with your feet placed firmly on the floor at a comfortable distance apart. The bench should be at a height that creates a right angle with your leg. Keep your back straight and face away from the cable, with your knees at the same distance apart throughout the crunch.

2. Hold the cable behind your back with both hands equally grasping the weight. Allow the cable to gently lift up your back.

3. Pull the rope down using your abdominal muscles and not your arm strength. Let your abs do the work. As your body pushes forward point your elbows to your knees and then to your hips. Your back will remain straight and not arched as it leans forward.

4. Return to a full upright position. Your back will be perpendicular with the floor and the cable is in a rest position.

5. Repeat exercise to complete a full set.

6. Expand your list of abdominal crunches by adapting the cable seated crunch. You can try other crunches such as the kneeling cable crunch to work the same muscles.

Tips & Warnings
