Flat belly moves: Reverse crunch

This ab workout engages your lower body.

By Jorge Cruise

Crunches

1. Lie with your hands by your sides, palms down. Place your heels as close to your bottom as possible. Raise your head and heels up slightly to engage your upper abs; contract your upper abs throughout the exercise.

2. Exhale as you pull your knees in toward your chest, using your lower abdominals and making sure your bottom is lifted off the ground at the top of the movement. Inhale as you lower your body to starting position. Repeat 10 to 12 times. Rest for one minute, then repeat three more sets (resting one minute between each set).
