Partial crunches with extended arms

Exercise steps

• Lie on your back with your legs bent and arms extended towards your knees.

• Perform a partial range abdominal crunch, lifting your upper back off the ground and returning to the starting position.

• If possible, try to keep your head elevated throughout the exercise to facilitate spinal flexion.

• This exercise allows you to work the abdominal muscles while minimizing the work of the psoas iliacus.
