How to: Floor Crunch Feet on Bench
- Lie on your back on the floor with your feet on a bench.
- Place your hands behind your head, keeping your elbows wide.
- Engage your core and lift your upper body towards your knees.
- Pause briefly at the top, then lower back down with control.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Common Mistakes
- Not engaging the core enough during the lift.
- Jerking the body instead of moving smoothly.
- Using the arms to pull rather than relying on the abs.
Modifications
- Perform the exercise with knees bent to reduce strain.
- Use a smaller range of motion if full crunches are difficult.
Tips
- Focus on contracting your abs as you lift your upper body.
- Keep your feet securely on the bench to maintain balance.
- Avoid pulling on your neck with your hands.
