Abs Primary Muscle Group for Exercise Demonstration

Primary Muscle: Abs

Equipment: Bodyweight

Level: Intermediate

Purpose: To target the lower abs.

Execution: From a lying position on the decline bench with your head at the leg support, grasp either side of the pad. With your legs extended and holding a medicine ball in between your feet, raise your legs up over your body, rolling your pelvis off the bench. Squeeze at the peak contraction and give a strong exhale before returning slowly to the start position. Lower your legs to the point just before your lower back starts to lift off the bench before lifting for another repetition.
