Side Abdominal Crunch
How to Do Side Ab Crunches
1. Lie flat on the floor on your right hip,
and bend your knees.
2. Place your left hand behind your head,
and keep your elbow extended. Place your right arm across your stomach
with your right hand on top of your left side.
3. Use your side ab muscles only and lift
your upper body off the floor. Continue raising your body until your torso
is up over your hip. Point your torso toward your hip. Hold for a count
of 3. Lower your body slowly toward the floor. Complete your repetitions
on one side of your body before moving to the opposite side.
Side Abdominal Crunch Tip
Make sure all your upper body is lifted off
the floor, and don't use your head to raise your body. Use only your side
muscles.
