I have a lot of trouble with my neck hurting when doing crunches. I found that the stability ball gives the best results with crunches. I had a trainer at the gym show me how to do them effectively, and WOW, I noticed a difference. Don't get me wrong, I didn't stick with it the way I should have. BUT...I didn't have any neck pain, and it was easier on my back. I know that I was working my abs, because I was feeling the pain after the first 3 or 4 workouts. I was to the point that I was doing 300 crunches every two days. I, as usual, lost the gumption, though...*sigh*
BACK TO WORK AGAIN!!!!!!
