Reverse Crunch Twist
The Reverse Crunch Twist is a good way to focus on the lower Internal
Obliques. You will be following their direction of pull during this
exercise. Place hands behind your head or at your sides if that
feels more comfortable. Twisting as you begin rolling your hips
back over the AbMat™ performs the exercise. Do not use your legs
to throw you back over the mat. Keep in mind you are lifting the
entire weight of your legs and hips with the lower section of your
abdominals. This may be difficult at first. You may want to start
with the Decline Reverse Crunch
Twist.
*This movement can be performed by fully contracting the abdominal
muscles and rolling all the way up, or by simply doing the lower
section of the movement, focusing on the lower Internal Obliques
2-4 inch movement.
