Cross-Body Crunch
The Cross-Body Crunch is a dynamic core exercise that combines a crunch with a torso rotation. It primarily targets the abdominal muscles and obliques, enhancing core strength and stability through a cross-body patterning movement.
Cross Body Hammer Curl
Stand up straight with a dumbbell in each hand. Your hands should be down at your side with your palms facing in.
Crossover Reverse Lunge
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. This will be your starting position.
Cross Over - With Bands
The Banded Chest Crossover is a resistance band exercise that targets the chest muscles through a horizontal adduction movement. It mimics the cable crossover machine, providing constant tension to build chest strength and definition.
Crucifix
The Crucifix is a static hold exercise that challenges shoulder endurance and stability by holding weights out to the sides at shoulder height. It primarily develops the deltoids and upper back, while also engaging the core and grip. This exercise is foundational for building the shoulder stamina required in strongman events and general athletic conditioning.
Crunches
Lie flat on your back with your feet flat on the ground, or resting on a bench with your knees bent at a 90 degree angle. If you are resting your feet on a bench, place them three to four inches apart and point your toes inward so they touch.
Crunch - Hands Overhead
The Hands Overhead Crunch is a core strengthening exercise that increases abdominal activation by extending the lever arm. This variation is more challenging than a standard crunch, making it effective for building midsection stability and muscular endurance.
Crunch - Legs On Exercise Ball
The Crunch - Legs On Exercise Ball is a core stability variation of the traditional crunch. By placing the feet on an unstable surface, it increases the activation demand on the abdominal muscles to maintain body position while performing the flexion movement.
Cuban Press
The Cuban Press is a compound shoulder exercise that combines an external rotation with an overhead press. It primarily develops rotator cuff strength and shoulder stability while also targeting the deltoids. This movement is excellent for athletes looking to improve shoulder health and overhead pressing power.
Dancer's Stretch

Place a decline bench underneath the Smith machine. Now place the barbell at a height that you can reach when lying down and your arms are almost fully extended. Using a pronated grip that is wider than shoulder width, unlock the bar from the rack and hold it straight over you with your arms extended. This will be your starting position.
Deficit Deadlift
Begin by having a platform or weight plates that you can stand on, usually 1-3 inches in height. Approach the bar so that it is centered over your feet. You feet should be about hip width apart. Bend at the hip to grip the bar at shoulder width, allowing your shoulder blades to protract. Typically, you would use an overhand grip or an over/under grip on heavier sets.
