This movement is a fantastic addition to your core routine in the Fitness Tracker app. By combining cable resistance with the instability of the Bosu ball, it recruits your entire midsection and teaches you to brace dynamically. You’ll finish with side bends to hit your obliques for a complete abdominal session.
Instructions
- Attach standard handles to the lowest setting on each side of a dual cable machine.
- Position a Bosu ball in front of the machine and lie back so your lower back rests comfortably on the dome.
- Reach back and grab a handle in each hand. Bring your arms forward so your hands extend straight between your knees.
- Keep your arms straight and perform a crunch by lifting your torso while maintaining tension through the cables.
- Slowly return to the starting position, keeping your abs engaged.
- Repeat for reps, then immediately transition to side bends.
- With your torso upright and arms straight at your sides, alternate side-to-side reaches toward your heels to work the obliques.
