Straight Leg Reverse Crunch on the Pilates Reformer - This exercise is good for strengthening one's abs. However, one must perform this exercise only if they are completely attuned to the idea of a strenuous exercise routine. According to Namita Agarwal, this exercise uses four breathing techniques and effectively engages the lower abdominal muscles. What one must absolutely remember is that jerking the back while doing this routine may prove to be detrimental. Full concentration and slow and deep breathing are the other prerequisites for this kind of intense stretching. If done properly, this exercise can result in very strong lower abdominal muscles.
