Instructions

  1. 1

    Connect an ankle strap attachment to a low pulley cable and position a mat on the floor in front of it.

  2. 2

    Sit down with your feet toward the pulley and attach the cable to your ankles.

  3. 3

    Lie down, elevate your legs and bend your knees at a 90-degree angle. Your legs and the cable should be aligned. If not, adjust the pulley up or down until they are.

  4. 4

    With your hands behind your head, bring your knees inward to your torso and elevate your hips off the floor.

  5. 5

    Pause for a moment and in a slow and controlled manner drop your hips and bring your legs back to the starting 90-degree angle. You should still have tension on your abs in the resting position.

  6. 6

    Repeat the same movement to failure.
