    How to: Resistance Band Reverse Crunch

    1. Attach the resistance band around a stable object at ankle height.
    2. Lie down on your back and grasp the handles of the resistance band.
    3. Bring your knees towards your chest while pulling with your abs.
    4. Slowly lower your legs back to the starting position.
    5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

    Common Mistakes

    • Pulling with the arms instead of engaging the core.
    • Not controlling the movement on the way down.

    Modifications

    • Perform the exercise without a resistance band for less resistance.
    • Use a smaller resistance band to reduce difficulty.

    Tips

    • Ensure you maintain a neutral spine to avoid straining your back.
    • Focus on contracting your abs at the top of the movement for maximum effectiveness.
