- Lie back on a mat with your knees bent. Hold a medicine ball above your head with both hands. This will be your starting position.
- Bring your straight arms over your face and chest, crunch forward by pushing your lower back into the mat and squeezing your abdominal muscles, exhaling as you go; keep reaching until the medicine ball touches your feet.
- Inhale as you return to the starting position.
- Repeat for recommended repetitions.
Variation:
Instead of tapping the medicine ball to your feet each time, alternate between resting the medicine ball on top of your shins and holding in your hands.
