DECUBITUS OBLIQUE CRUNCH

A.K.A. Oblique Crunch on Angled Back Extension Bench (left)

Lie sideways on an angled back extension bench with your ankles supported in the ankle pads and your right hip supported on the seat pad. Bend your torso down toward the floor as far as possible and then using your oblique muscles pull your torso back up as high as possible. Hold this position for a second contracting your obliques as hard as you can and then lower your torso back down towards the floor and repeat for reps. Once you have completed all reps on the left side, turn over on the bench so that your right hip is supported on the seat pad and perform in a similar manner to work your oblique muscles on the right side.
