Medicine Ball Crunch

Purpose of this exercise: TO DEVELOP THE ABDOMINALS

As you grow stronger, increase the weight of the ball but never sacrifice technique for added resistance.

Technique

1.	Lie on the floor on your back with feet shoulder width apart. Bend names to 90 degrees. Hold the ball to your chest.
2.	Quickly raise the shoulders and upper back to 45 degrees to the floor.
3.	Tuck chin to chest and slowly lower yourself to the ground, tapping your shoulder blades but not bouncing.

CAUTIONS!!

• Keep a slight roll in the spine to help prevent hyperextension of the low back.
