Muscles Used: 

Abdominals

Reminder Tips: The movement is not large (only about 4 inches.)  Keep eyes focused on a spot on the ceiling in front of you.  Concentrate on lifting the lower ribs towards the pelvis (about 30 degrees.)  Keep abdominals contracted throughout the entire movement, especially the lower phase.  the bar should barely touch the head or the neck. If you have a history of shoulder problems, or if this is a position that is uncomfortable for you, place the bar in front of the body on the chest, cradling the bar.
