Isometric Abdominal Crunch
Exercise Overview
The isometric abdominal crunch is a core strengthening exercise. Lie down on a padded surface on the floor in a crook lying position (both knees bent, feet flat on the floor). Place both hands across the chest and complete a crunch by lifting your upper back off of the floor. Go high enough that the shoulder blades are no longer on the floor and hold for 30 seconds or as needed for your specific goals.
