マシンクランチ

A seated oblique crunch on a machine designed to target the oblique muscles by rotating the torso during the crunch movement.

💡 Instructions:

• Sit on the machine with your feet secured and back against the pad.

• Place your hands lightly by your head or grip the handles if available.

• Engage your core and rotate your torso to one side while crunching forward.

• Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement, squeezing your obliques.

• Return slowly to the starting position.

• Complete all reps on one side, then switch to the other.

⚠️ Common mistakes:

• Using momentum instead of controlled movement.

• Pulling with the arms rather than engaging the obliques.

• Allowing the weight stack to slam down between reps.
