Built Fit stresses the importance on perfecting the form of Ab Crunch Machine before you begin adding additional weight.

Performing the exercise: Set the weight on the machine. Sit in the seat and strap into the machine.

Once in a fully crunched position slowly let the weight back up to a slightly stretched position and repeat.
