Tuck Crunches - Tone Building Middle Abs ( Abdominals ) Exercise for Six Pack Abs

Technique - Start by sitting down on the floor in an area that will provide enough space to perform the exercise. Lay back onto the floor and place your hands behind your head interlacing your fingers together. Extend your legs out straight in front of you and raise the balls of your feet from the floor to start the exercise. Exhale as you crunch your upper body forwards in a controlled manner until you feel your abs muscles stretch. At the same time raise your knees towards your chest to meet your head. Squeeze your abs muscles inwards and hold the position for a count of 1. Inhale as you lower you upper body back to the starting position in a slow, controlled manner. Again at the same time lower your legs back to a straight position not allowing the balls of your feet to touch the floor. Do not allow any longer than a 1 count before starting the next rep as this will maintain pressure on the abs muscles.
