My abs appear quickly about 1 week after I started do this exercise but remember in order to see abs it needs your fat percentage to be low

[@user-eq2re6df4v]

Thanks

[@si7273]

How do you get the padded part where your feet and ankles are to go down like that? At the gym, it's standing straight up and it makes a 90 degree angle to the bench. I tried to pull the lever, but couldn't figure it out.

[@dee1380]

thank u..

[@gunnerajt4601]

This really helped I was going all the way up and making my back make a weird clicking noise

[@nzidan4465]

Is there other workout ideas that can be done on this bench ???

[@givealisten8381]

Thank you
My hip flexors and lower back hurts because I was doing them wrong….

[@crabnoshell1]

Can i just do crunch on the ground? or will it be better with a Sit-Up Bench?

[@ctrlmario]

No wonder why I’m feeling it in the hips.

[@jakesmith2984]

Gorgeous

[@Mr-Slayer-Sir]

Was Trying To Teach My GF This But She Couldn't Do Either. Basic. I Explained This To Her Exactly This Way. So I Will Send Her This Video And Maybe She Will Understand. I Tried Like 5-6x And She Started Getting Mad At Me

[@darthdad160]

Hello Brian Frances, Thanks, I have been doing this exercise wrong. Any advice as to how many reps/sets if I am doing the regular and rotational crunch?

[@atrainbrady3208]

I hate it when they don't give sets and reps.

[@gaysodaniel1636]

Wow

[@Mitrasto22]

Could it be that during the crunch I feel that my stones are also making an effort?

[@malachilatroy]

😂

[@jasonwest2297]

That's so weird, whenever I massage my stones, I feel that my abs get a good workout!

[@Jojikiba]

Is it OK to come up say 50 degrees from horizontal with a straight back, and hold it there a second or so before going back down?

[@bremenfan29]

Sit ups are really bad for your lumbar spine. You’re putting a lot of pressure on L5. It’s pinching the disc

[@vamshivijaykumar5111]

Will this workout reduce tummy or belly fat ?

[@roseedits6359]

yes

[@c.m.lollar7501]

mona lisa!

[@danburton8067]
