Steps:

1. Flex your hips and knees to 90-degrees,—using your hands to grab the bench behind your head for support.

2. Tighten your core to lift your pelvis toward your rib cage. Pause briefly in the up-position and lower toward the bench.

3. Keep your total range of motion short, using your abs to pulse up and down in a reverse crunch motion.
