Bicycle Crunch

Bicycle Crunches work your abdominals, hips, and obliques. By keeping your legs off the floor you increase the workout, working your lower abdominal muscles.

3. Straighten you right leg out about 45-degree angle to the ground while turning your upper body to the left, bringing your right elbow toward the left knee. (Make sure your rib cage Is moving and not just your elbows.)
