Lever Ab & Oblique Coaster Crunch

Lever Ab Coaster Oblique Crunch

Starting Position:
1. Adjust the lever ab coaster to ensure it is at a comfortable height for your body.
2. Kneel on the padded area with your knees securely placed on the cushion.
3. Grip the handles with both hands, keeping your arms slightly bent.
4. Ensure your spine is straight, and engage your core muscles.

Movement Instructions:
1. Inhale deeply to prepare your body.
2. Begin the movement by bringing your knees towards your chest while simultaneously leaning your torso forward.
3. Focus on squeezing your oblique muscles (the sides of your abdomen) as you pull your knees up.
4. Hold this position at the top of the movement for a moment, contracting your core.
5. Slowly lower your knees back to the starting position while exhaling, returning to a controlled manner.
6. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Tips for Beginners:
- Start with a lower number of repetitions (8-12) and gradually increase as you build strength.
- Maintain a controlled pace to maximize muscle engagement and reduce the risk of injury.
- Ensure your movements are smooth, avoiding any jerking or sudden motions.

Safety Considerations:
- Always warm up before starting your ab workout.
- If you feel any pain (beyond normal muscle fatigue), stop the exercise and reassess your form or consult a fitness professional.
