Target your lower abs using only your bodyweight.

The Reverse Crunch is a simple but effective core movement that emphasizes the lower part of the abdominal wall. It’s especially useful for beginners and those looking to reduce lower-back strain. FitnessTracker recommends this as a staple ab movement for core control and stability.

  2. Bend your knees and lift your legs so your thighs are vertical and feet are parallel to the floor.
  3. Slowly curl your hips off the ground, bringing your knees toward your chest.
