MID/FINISH POSITION

Keep the movement in the lateral plane as much as possible to emphasize contraction of the obliques. Maintain a bend in your knees to take pressure off your lower back. Crunch your obliques hard at the top of each movement. Hold the position for the count of two seconds and lower to the starting position.
