How to
Dumbbell crunches are a weighted variation of traditional crunches designed to target the abdominal muscles more intensely. Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Hold a dumbbell with both hands close to your chest or above your head. Lift your shoulders and upper back off the ground in a crunching motion, engaging your core. Slowly lower yourself back to the starting position. Ensure controlled movements throughout the exercise to prevent strain.
