Muscle outlines from Body Muscles by Ivan Vulović, Apache 2.0 — regrouped and recoloured for Muscle Train.
Attach a rope handle to the high pulley. Stand facing the machine, feet shoulder-width apart, holding the rope. Step back to create tension, hands at head level. Engage core, slightly bend knees. Exhale, contract abs, pull elbows down towards thighs, keeping lower body stable. Pause at the bottom. Inhale, slowly return to start, maintaining control. Repeat.
Keep elbows close to your head. Focus on abdominal contraction, not arm strength. Maintain a slight bend in knees for stability. Initiate movement from your core. Control the movement throughout. Exhale during the crunch, inhale on the return.
