Cable Crunch
Well-toned absCoach's Tips
It's a workout that uses cables to make the upper abdominal muscles. The cable can handle the weight, so it can give you more load than a body weight crunch!

Starting Position
1. Start by sitting on the floor with your feet flat, and your knees bent.
2. Place a cable machine pulley at the lowest setting.
3. Attach a rope handle to the cable machine.
4. Grasp the rope handle with both hands and sit up tall.
5. Place your hands at your temples and lean back slightly.
