#2 – Reverse Crunch

An effective exercise that targets the lower abdominal region because you’re bringing your legs towards your body rather than your body towards your legs. Great for home workouts as it does not require any equipment.

Lie on your back with your hands by your side, knees bent, feet together and about six inches off the floor. Keep your feet close to your hips as you curl your lower body towards your shoulders, rolling your hips and lower back slightly off the floor and breathing out as you do so. Squeeze your abs in the top position before lowering your legs back to the start position, remembering to do each repetition slowly.
