Name: Mini-Crunches

Purpose: Improve strength in the abdominal muscles.


Starting Position: Begin in a proper seated position with both feet flat on the floor and your toes pushed against a stable object (i.e. desk or wall).
 


Execution: Lean upper body back from starting position as far as possible. Hold for a count of 2 before returning to the start position. Try to stay tall in your upper body throughout the movement.

 


Regression: Complete your mini crunches near a wall or other stable object for additional support when required. Attempt to reduce your dependence on your hands for stabilization as you become more comfortable.


Progression: Move away from the wall or desk so your feet are not anchored against any objects or increase the distance you lean back. Repetitions can also be performed with a single leg on the ground.
