Instructions
Attach a rope handle to the cable machine and position the decline bench in front of the cable tower. Set the cable pulley at the bottom position.
Sit on the decline bench with your feet secured under the pads, and grab the rope with both hands. Position yourself so that the pulley is behind your head.
Lie back on the bench and hold the rope around the sides of your head, keeping the ends near your ears.
Contract your abs to crunch your upper body forward while keeping a firm grip on the rope and hands stable at the sides of your head.
Lift your torso up towards your knees, exhaling as you perform the crunch. Pause at the top of the contraction.
Slowly lower your body back down to the starting position, inhaling as you go down.
Repeat the motion for the desired number of reps, maintaining controlled and steady movements.
Ensure you keep the tension on the abs throughout the movement and avoid using momentum. Adjust the weight on the cable machine according to your fitness level and strength.
