Beginning Bicycle Ab Crunch
1. To begin, lie on the ground with the belly button drawn inward and the pelvic floor contracted by tightening those muscles commonly used to stop the flow of urine.
2. Lift the legs off the floor so that they are in triple flexion (at the ankles, knees, and hips).
3. Ensure that the spine angles do not change throughout the movement.
