Transcript
Want to do cable crunches but you don’t have a cable machine? Try putting a dumbbell on your shoulders and lean your upper body forward and use your core to curl in and then curl up. Keep your arms by your ears and keep a soft bend in your knees to allow your body to move naturally with the motion. This is a slow and controlled movement. Focus on curling down and then really using your core to come back up 😮💨 Save this to try the next time you hit core 😁
