The incline sit up

The incline sit up is a superb ab builder. This exercise has been the staple of bodybuilders, athletes, and weekend warriors for ages. There's good reason, it works.

This exercise hits the entire ab region from top to bottom. The sit up can be done on the floor, or on an incline bench. Beware, the incline sit up is a little more difficult.


Position for the incline sit up

1. Lie back on an incline board set at an angle of your choosing. Hook your feet under the pad to secure your body. Keep your knees slightly bent. You can either place your hands behind your head or crossed in front of your body.

Execution of the incline sit up

1. Slowly curl your body upwards to your knees and slowly descend back down. Repeat.

2. Keep the movement fluent, slow, and controlled.
