In our digital age, where many hours are spent sitting down, it is crucial to provide our bodies with sufficient exercise.
Our weekly exercise videos offer you a simple but effective way to get your circulation going and prevent typical aches and pains.
This week we focus on an exercise that not only benefits your back but also strengthens your abdominal muscles: crunches.
Crunches are an excellent exercise to strengthen the core muscles and protect the spine at the same time.
They are easy to perform and require very little equipment, making them the perfect choice for a short workout break – whether at the office or at home.
Follow our latest video to see how to do crunches correctly and get the most out of your exercise break.
