The Ab Crossover (aka the Ab Chopper) is a great way to work your abs while working your shoulders a little bit too. It's a good alternative to boring old crunches so try it out.
Here's how:
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and hands straight overhead, clasped together.
- Crunch up (contract your abs) while bringing your hands over to the outside of your left thigh. That's is one rep.
- Lower back to start position and repeat to the outside of your right thigh. That is another rep.
- Do two sets of 20 reps.
Fit's Tips: If this is too easy then hold a light medicine ball in your hands. You can also make it more difficult by doing more reps.

i really liked this one fit, but I feel like i'm working back more than my abs.
i have this back issue when it comes to ab workouts, I always put too much pressure on them and it really hurts when I do a sit up.
1I do this! Or sort of like it. i love doing ab work. I always said, I have a 6 pack, it's just still in the case. Gotta get rid of this flab!
2I do these. Fun! (jk)
3Thanks, Fit. I like this as an alternative to crunches.
