4. Grasp the rope attachment with palms facing inward and pull up to the side of your head.

Cable Crunch Tips:

1. Hold at the mid point for a count of 2-3 seconds to add some real intensity to this exercise.
2. Always do the exercise slowly, never swinging yourself up as this could cause strain in your lower back.
