    I'll I can say is engage your core keep your stomas intowards you belly button! Alot of people try to use momentom which wont do anything for you stomach! Also try hold ups stright towards you legs instead of behind your head! Good luck!!!

    why are you doing crunches?

    they are really ridiculous and way more likely to damage something than help.

    Do planks- or russian twists or almost anything- work on hollow hold- or dragon flags.

    Crunches are rubbish.
