- Gradually lower yourself back down to the starting position, making sure to keep control and not let your body just fall back to the floor.

Technik-Tipps
Avoid the temptation to rush through the movement. It's not about how many crunches you can do, but how effectively you can do them. A slow, controlled movement will engage your muscles more effectively and reduce the risk of injury.
Hold the weight close to your chest. Holding it further away can put unnecessary strain on your arms and neck, detracting from the focus on your abs.
Don't hold your breath during the exercise. Exhale as you crunch up and inhale as you lower back down. This will help maintain blood pressure and oxygenate your muscles
