Oblique Cable Crunch Instructions
- Attach a D-handle attachment to a high pulley on a cable machine. Kneel sideways next to the machine, with your knees bent at 90 degrees.
- Grab the attachment with the arm that's parallel to the cable machine and bring it to one side of your head. Your forearm should be at a right angle to your upper arm. This is the starting position.
- Engage your core by crunching your torso downward and to the side, bringing your elbow toward your hip, while keeping your hips stable.
- Focus on using your obliques to bend your body, not just your arms.
- Pause, then slowly return to the starting position with control, keeping tension on the cable.
- Perform the desired number of reps, then switch sides to target both obliques.
