Preparation

Knee Crunches work the lower abdominals and, more specifically the obliques. Lie flat on your back with your feet flat on the ground. Raise your legs so they are perpendicular to the floor. Bend the legs so the calves are parallel to the floor. Place your hands behind your head for stability. Make sure your lower back is touching the floor and is not arched.

Method

Step 1

Now, exhale and slowly raise your head, shoulders, and upper body off the ground

Step 2

Your shoulders should lift up in a way that your elbows almost touch your knees

Step 3

Make sure your lower back stays on the floor

Step 4

Once you go up, contract your abdominals hard

Step 5

Hold the contraction for a second

Step 6

Now, inhale and come down slowly to the starting position

Step 7

Repeat for the desired number of reps.
