Kneeling Cable Crunch With Twists

This one is like a bear hugging a honey pot, then rotating side to side to guard it. You kneel, pull the cable down, crunch, and twist each rep to light up your abs and side waist with steady tension.

Instructions

1. Attach a rope to a high cable pulley.
2. Kneel facing the machine and hold the rope by your head.
3. Brace your core and keep your hips still.
4. Crunch down and twist toward one side.
5. Return slowly to the start position.
6. Alternate sides on each repetition.
