Exercise Instructions:

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. Grasp the handle with your left hand and face your body at right angles to the cable pulled with your feet firmly on the floor and shoulder width apart. Your forearm should be at right angles to your upper arm. Pull down with your left oblique as far as possible. Pause, then lower the weight back down. Don't let the weight drop to the stack at any time throughout the exercise.

Tips:

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