How to improve your abs exercise straight arm sit up

How to improve your abs 

EXERCISE 
Straight arm sit up 

The straight arm sit up is an exercise that targets the upper and lower abs. 

The crunch is performed by laying on you back with your feet straight out.  While your hands are straight out above your head lift your upper body upward toward your feet using your abs. Then returning to the starting position. 



The exercise should be done 3 sets of either (10, 15, 20) reps. 

Another alternative is to set a time limit to complete as many as possible (30 sec, 1 min). Work toward using the correct form and increasing your number each time. 



Be sure to use the correct form to protect your neck and back. Beginners could start with 2 sets of 10 reps.
