Six Bad Habits Abdominal Exercises

When doing crunches, you want your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor so your knees are centered and pointed upward. Keep them centered and more, not one side. If you drop your knees to one side, you are unnecessarily compressing your vertebrae, which can lead to a painful back injury.
 

Sit-Ups

Asleep
