Decline Sit-Up

How to do it

1. Hook your feet under the pads of a decline sit-up bench and lie back on the bench with your knees bent.
2. Cross your arms over your chest or place your hands lightly behind your head without pulling on your neck.
3. Brace your core and curl your torso up off the bench, leading with your chest toward your knees.
4. Continue until your torso is upright, or as close to it as your hip mobility allows.
5. Reverse the motion under control, lowering your torso back down to the bench.
6. Repeat for the prescribed number of repetitions without letting your feet slip out from under the pads.
