Exercise Name: Bench Knee Tucks

Muscle Group: Lower Rectus Abdominis

Video/Image: 

Description: 

Sit sideways on a bench and grasp the edges of the bench for support. With bent knees, raise your legs slightly and then straighten them. Lean backward as balance requires. Next, lift your knees up towards your chest while keeping your lower legs pointed downward and flexing (tightening) your "abs" as hard as you can. Keep continuous tension on the "abs" throughout this movement. This works both upper and lower abdominal muscles.
