Lat Prayer

Abs Machine

Description

The abs prayer is an exercise that targets the core, particularly the abdominals while incorporating resistance from a cable machine. To perform the movement, stand facing a cable machine with the rope attachment set at a high position, holding it with both hands pressed together in front of your chest, then lean forward, engaging the core and pulling the cable down in a controlled motion. This exercise enhances core strength, stability, and flexibility by adding resistance to the traditional abs prayer movement.

How To

01 Attach a rope to the high pulley, kneel facing the machine
02 Hold the rope in prayer position, elbows bent, back straight
03 Brace your abs and crunch forward, pulling the rope down
04 Squeeze your abs hard at the bottom
05 Slowly extend back up, keeping tension on
