STANDING OBLIQUE CABLE CRUNCH

EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS:

1. The standing oblique cable crunch hits the abs and obliques. Set up the high pulley cable machine by attaching a grip attachment and selecting the weight you want to use.
2. Grasp the handle with your left hand and face your body at a right angle to the cable pulley with your feet firmly on the floor and shoulder width apart.
3. Your forearm should be at a right angle to your upper arm.
4. Pull down with your left oblique as far as possible.
5. Pause, then lower the weight back down.
6. Don't let the weight drop to the stack at any time throughout the exercise.
7. Repeat this movement for the desired number of reps and then switch to your other side.

​ Exercise Tips:

1. Keep your back straight and eyes looking forward at all times.
2. Keep the arm that's holding the cable fixed at all times.
3. Pause for 2+ seconds at the mid point of the exercise for added intensity.
