Proper Cross-Body Crunch

Lie flat on your back and bend your knees about 60 degrees.

Keep your feet flat on the floor and place your hands loosely behind your head. This will be your starting position.

Now curl up and bring your right elbow and shoulder across your body while bring your left knee in toward your left shoulder at the same time. Reach with your elbow and try to touch your knee. Exhale as you perform this movement. Tip: Try to bring your shoulder up towards your knee rather than just your elbow and remember that the key is to contract the abs as you perform the movement; not just to move the elbow.

Now go back down to the starting position as you inhale and repeat with the left elbow and the right knee.

Continue alternating in this manner until all prescribed repetitions are done.

Proper Butt-Ups

Begin a pushup position but with your elbows on the ground and resting on your forearms. Your arms should be bent at a 90 degree angle.

Arch your back slightly out rather than keeping your back completely straight.

Raise your glutes toward the ceiling, squeezing your abs tightly to close the distance between your ribcage and hips. The end result will be that you’ll end up in a high bridge position. Exhale as you perform this portion of the movement.

Lower back down slowly to your starting position as you breathe in. Tip: Don't let your back sag downwards.

Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions

Proper Dumbbell Incline Row

Using a neutral grip, lean into an incline bench.

Take a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip, beginning with the arms straight. This will be your starting position.

Retract the shoulder blades and flex the elbows to row the dumbbells to your side.

Pause at the top of the motion, and then return to the starting position.

Proper Barbell Hip Thrust

Begin seated on the ground with a bench directly behind you. Have a loaded barbell over your legs. Using a fat bar or having a pad on the bar can greatly reduce the discomfort caused by this exercise.

Roll the bar so that it is directly above your hips, and lean back against the bench so that your shoulder blades are near the top of it.

Begin the movement by driving through your feet, extending your hips vertically through the bar. Your weight should be supported by your shoulder blades and your feet. Extend as far as possible, then reverse the motion to return to the starting position

Proper Barbell Glute Bridge

Begin seated on the ground with a loaded barbell over your legs. Using a fat bar or having a pad on the bar can greatly reduce the discomfort caused by this exercise. Roll the bar so that it is directly above your hips, and lay down flat on the floor.

Begin the movement by driving through with your heels, extending your hips vertically through the bar. Your weight should be supported by your upper back and the heels of your feet.

Extend as far as possible, then reverse the motion to return to the starting position.

Proper Ab Crunch Machine

Select a light resistance and sit down on the ab machine placing your feet under the pads provided and grabbing the top handles. Your arms should be bent at a 90 degree angle as you rest the triceps on the pads provided. This will be your starting position.

At the same time, begin to lift the legs up as you crunch your upper torso. Breathe out as you perform this movement. Tip: Be sure to use a slow and controlled motion. Concentrate on using your abs to move the weight while relaxing your legs and feet.

After a second pause, slowly return to the starting position as you breathe in.

Repeat the movement for the prescribed amount of repetitions

Proper Ab Roller

Hold the Ab Roller with both hands and kneel on the floor.

Now place the ab roller on the floor in front of you so that you are on all your hands and knees (as in a kneeling push up position). This will be your starting position.

Slowly roll the ab roller straight forward, stretching your body into a straight position. Tip: Go down as far as you can without touching the floor with your body. Breathe in during this portion of the movement.

After a pause at the stretched position, start pulling yourself back to the starting position as you breathe out. Tip: Go slowly and keep your abs tight at all times.
