Bend your knees and pull them up towards your chest, keeping your feet together, this is your starting position.
Engage your core and lift your upper body off the floor, trying to bring your chest as close to your knees as possible.
Hold this position for a few seconds, then slowly lower your upper body back down to the starting position.
Repeat this movement for the desired number of repetitions, ensuring that you are using your abdominal muscles to control the movement and not relying on momentum.
Pro Tip
Engage Your Core: As you sit up, make sure to engage your core muscles, not just your neck or upper body. A common mistake is to pull up from the neck or shoulders, which can strain these areas and not give the desired workout to your abs. Controlled Movement: In a controlled motion, lift your upper body towards your knees, then slowly lower back down. Avoid the mistake of rushing the movement or using momentum to lift your body. The key to this exercise is the controlled contraction and extension of your abs. Breathing Technique: Breathe out as you lift your body and breathe in as you lower it. Proper breathing technique is essential for maximizing the effectiveness of the exercise and
