Short instructional YouTube video in which Ben Greenfield (Para Sports) demonstrates how to perform the bicycle crunch. He explains positioning (hands across chest), the movement sequence (crunch while driving one knee to chest and extending the opposite leg), and a key form cue (keep low back pressed to the ground to avoid arching).
Hi, I'm Ben Greenfield with Para Sports. A great way to get live biofeedback during your workout One of the exercises that you'll encounter during your workout is called the Bicycle Crunch. I want to show you how to do the bicycle crunch right now because it's a great exercise for really fatiguing your abs quickly and generating a lot.
More torque in.
Your abs compared to a regular crunch. To do this exercise, get down on the ground, clasp.
Your hands across your.
Chest and.
For from this position, perform a crunch while.
Driving your knee up to your chest and extending the opposite leg. You return to.
The starting position and.
Again drive.
Your knee up and extend your opposite leg. You get a lot more out of.
This workout if when you return to this position you make sure you keep your low back pressed down against the ground. That will keep you from arching your back and give you a little bit more pressure in your abs. So I hope that helps. And I'm Ben Greenfield from Para signing out.
