This is a Pilates style crunch sit up, it's unlike a traditional crunch which focusses on using the rectus abdominals (six pack muscle). This Pilates crunch focusses on using the transverse abdominis muscle instead. The transverse abdominis helps us 'hollow' the stomach - in other words it pulls the belly back towards the spine. When we do this action of hollowing the abdominals it gives us greater core stability and supports the spine. The aesthetic benefit is that gives us a flatter stomach and slimmer waist.
