The challenge with the ab exercises is to avoid distorting the natural shape of the spine. This is explained on page 198: "Consider placing your hand under your low back, and feel your rib cage pressing against your hand while leaving the pelvis in its origianal forward-tipped position." So, yes, this technique is contrary to what is generally offered from others.
