Kick Crunch Instructions

2. Lift your left leg as high as you can, and touch your left foot with your right hand.
3. Return to the initial position and repeat on the opposite side.
4. Continue alternating sides, in a fast-paced move, until the set is complete.
Proper Form And Breathing Pattern
Look straight ahead, keep your back straight and open your chest. Engage your core and breathe out as you crunch and touch your foot with the opposite hand. Keep the movement smooth and fast and, as soon as one foot touches the floor, repeat the move on the opposite side.
