הקדמה ל Crunch

The Crunch is a classic core-strengthening exercise that targets the abdominal muscles, improving posture, balance, and overall fitness. It's suitable for individuals at all fitness levels, from beginners to advanced athletes, due to its modifiable intensity. People would want to perform this exercise not only to build a stronger, more toned midsection, but also to enhance their functional fitness, which aids in everyday activities and reduces the risk of back pain.

ביצוע התרגיל: מדריך שלב אחר שלב Crunch

  • Place your hands behind your head, ensuring your elbows are open wide and not pulling on your neck.
  • Engage your abdominal muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine, then lift your upper body, including your shoulders and back, off the floor towards your knees.
  • Hold this position for a moment at the top, ensuring your core remains engaged and your neck is relaxed.
  • Slowly lower yourself back down to the starting position and repeat the exercise for your desired amount of repetitions.

טיפים לביצוע Crunch

  • Engage Your Core: Focus on engaging your abdominal muscles to lift your upper body off the floor. Avoid the mistake of using your neck or shoulders to do the work. The movement should be controlled and come from your core.
  • Breathe Correctly: Inhale as you lower your body, and exhale as you lift. This helps keep your core engaged and prevents you from holding your breath, which can increase blood pressure.
  • Keep Your Elbows Wide: If you have your hands behind your head, ensure your elbows are out to the sides and not pulled in towards your head. This helps keep your neck and shoulders relaxed and places the emphasis on your abs. 5
