How to properly do reverse crunches

By Ab Flyer | Mar 18, 2010


In this video I show how to do reverse crunches. The proper body position — the waist must lay firmly on the floor. In order to do this you can lift your head or lift your buttocks (put hands under your buttocks). I show also how to breath while doing reverse crunches.

    Many people don’t know how to use their abs instead of their hip flexors to perform the reverse crunch properly. Her technique is actually pretty good. It is physically impossible to “isolate” the lower abdominals, but this exercise will safely emphasize them. An important aspect here is the proper pelvic tilt, which is why cupping one’s hands underneath the tailbone is a good idea. Leg momentum to begin the thrust is OK, but the descent should be slowed as one gains the strength.

    There are better techniques than this. This one appears to rely more on the momentum of your legs than in isolating the lower abdominals.

    yeah…kicking the legs is not proper technique at all. and the legs need to go back a bit more

    I’ve tried to do this, and my back was making cracking sounds, and now it hurts terribly :S I’m such a wreck :’(

    Yep, but this one is the closest to the correct technique I think, just keep your arms at the sides though.

    yea, i dont think you should use your legs, just use lower abs to get your butt off the ground.. and remember you dont have to put your hands behind your head or under butt.. arms can be flat on the ground beside you and u still get a great workout

    Aren’t you using the momentum of kicking your lower legs up to do your reverse crunch? Not good.

    Good exercise to complement the others she as posted. Push ups are great as well since it tests your entire body similar to the plank.
