Cable Seated Crunch
Cable Seated Crunch is a isolation strength exercise using cable that trains the abdominals.
StrengthCableBeginnerIsolationPull
Primary muscles: Abdominals
How to do it
- Seat on a flat bench with your back facing a high pulley.
- Grasp the cable rope attachment with both hands (with the palms of the hands facing each other) and place your hands securely over both shoulders. Tip: Allow the weight to hyperextend the lower back slightly. This will be your starting position.
- With the hips stationary, flex the waist so the elbows travel toward the hips. Breathe out as you perform this step.
- As you inhale, go back to the initial position slowly.
- Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Cable Seated Crunch from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Abdominals volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
