How to do a Reverse Crunch
To make this exercise easier hold onto a weight. The heavier the weight you hold onto the easier the exercise. Work on reducing the weight you hold onto until you no longer need any support. Lay flat on your back with your arms above your head straight or holding onto a support weight just above your head. Slowly lift your legs off the floor, keeping your lower back into the floor as actively as you can. Fold your butt slowly off the floor aiming to compress your legs into your chest. Think of folding off the floor one vertabre at a time. Go over as far as you can or until your toes touch the floor. Unfold one vertabre at a time back to the floor, keeping the same slow speed and control.
