1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Secure a set of suspension straps with the handles hanging about a foot off of the ground. Move yourself into a pushup plank position facing away from the rack.
Place your feet into the handles. You should maintain a straight posture, not allowing the hips to sag. This will be your starting position.
Begin the movement by flexing the knees and hips, drawing the knees to your torso. As you do so, anteriorly tilt your pelvis, allowing your spine to flex.
At the top of the controlled motion, return to the starting position.
Technique guidance
Exhale through the abdominal effort and inhale during the controlled return. Keep the neck relaxed and do not hold your breath.
General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same other setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Suspended Reverse Crunch sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
