Crunch Hug
Crunch hug er en maveøvelse med egen kropsvægt, der kombinerer en traditionel crunch med et knæ-tuck. Ved at vikle armene omkring knæene, mens du laver en crunch, øges aktiveringen af mavemusklerne, og du fremmer kompression af kernen.
Sådan gør du
- Lig på ryggen med bøjede knæ og fødderne fladt på gulvet.
- Slyng armene omkring dine knæ og kram dem ind mod brystet.
- Løft overkroppen fra gulvet mod dine knæ, mens du spænder i mavemusklerne.
- Hold en pause i toppen af bevægelsen, hvor du presser kernen sammen.
- Sænk langsomt overkroppen tilbage til udgangspositionen og gentag det ønskede antal gange.
Teknik-tips
- Keep your lower back pressed gently into the floor.
- Hugging your knees helps compress the core as you lift.
- Lift your shoulder blades off the ground using your abs, not your neck.
- Exhale smoothly as you curl upward into the crunch.
Vejrtrækning: Exhale as you curl up and hug your knees toward your chest; inhale slowly as you lower your upper body back to the floor.
Almindelige fejl
- Pulling on your neck with your arms, which strains the cervical spine instead of working the abs.
- Using momentum to swing up, reducing the actual muscle engagement in your waist.
- Holding your breath during the crunch, which spikes blood pressure and prevents proper core contraction.
Aktiverede muskler
Primære: mavemuskler. Sekundære: skrå mavemuskler, hoftebøjere.

Why do I feel this exercise in my neck?
Neck strain usually happens when you pull your head forward with your arms rather than lifting with your abdominal muscles. Focus on curling your ribs toward your hips.
How many times a week should I do crunch hugs?
2 to 3 times per week is plenty for recovery and core strengthening, as your abs work during other movements too.
Can I do these if I have lower back discomfort?
If you feel discomfort in your lower back, keep your lower back glued to the mat and reduce your range of motion. Ease off if you feel sharp pain.
