Grab the handles of the machine, making sure your elbows are bent at 90 degrees and your arms are parallel to the ground.
Engage your core and slowly push down on the handles, pulling your upper body towards your knees to perform a crunch.
Pause for a moment at the bottom of the movement, ensuring that your abs are fully contracted.
Slowly return to the starting position, resisting the weight as you come back up to complete one repetition.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movement: Avoid jerky or fast movements. The key to getting the most out of the Lever Seated Crunch is to perform it in a slow, controlled manner. As you pull the lever towards your body, focus on contracting your abdominal muscles. As you return to the starting position, do so slowly to maintain tension in your abs. Breathing Technique: Breathing is crucial to this exercise. Exhale as you pull the lever towards you, and inhale as you return to the starting position. This will help keep your core engaged and maximize the effectiveness of the exercise. Avoid Overloading: It's a common mistake to load too much weight
