Crunches: Legs Straight removes the usual knee bend, giving your abs a different challenge and variety that leads to faster results.
Lie on your back with your legs extended straight up or along the floor rather than bent. Curl your shoulders and upper back off the floor, focusing the effort in your abs rather than pulling with your neck, then lower back down with control.
