How to do it

  1. Hang from a bar with an overhand grip a little wider than your shoulders.
  2. Let your body settle, shoulders pulled down away from your ears.
  3. Raise your knees toward your chest, curling your pelvis up at the top.
  4. As your knees come up, rotate them toward one side, then alternate on the next rep.
  5. Lower slowly. If you are swinging, stop - the swing is doing the work, not your abs.
