Move of the week: add butterfly crunches to your ab workout for an advanced core burn

By Chloe Gray

3 years ago

Welcome to our weekly Move of the Week series. Every Monday, we’ll be sharing with you one of our favourite exercises – how to do them, what muscles they work and why they should be a regular part of your workout regime. This week: butterfly crunches. 

There are only a few fundamental exercises we need to perform in order for our workouts to build functional strength. That doesn’t mean our training has to be boring, as small tweaks to movements keeps your exercise interesting while giving the muscles a great burn. 

A great example is the butterfly crunches, which turn the ab-burning dial up on the traditional exercise to keep challenging you and your core.
