How to do it: Begin in a lunge stance with back foot resting on top of bench, hands behind head. Lower into lunge and slowly bring opposite elbow across to knee. Return to start. Do 15 reps, and then repeat on opposite side.
Too much? Start with just the elevated lunge and add in the crossing crunch when you feel ready.
