Catcher Crunches–floor version! You can use a prop like a chair, bed, or bench for this one, but you really don’t need one. In my opinion it just makes it a little more fun and keeps your bent leg in a consistent (and harder) position.
- Lie on your back and hollow out so that your low back pushes into the floor.
- Clasp your hands behind your head and alternate tagging each elbow to the raised knee.
- Try to keep your low back pushing down into the floor.
- Remember to point your toes, and stay engaged through the straight leg. If you were in the air, that leg would not be floppy, right?!
