Simple Ways to Do More Sit-Ups Review the Principles of Exercise Science. Before you begin your sit-up training workout, it’s helpful to understand the Perfect Your Technique. Before you start cranking out multiple reps, you need to make sure your sit-up form is perfect. Determine Your Baseline.
Perform your situps on an incline. Decline boards are ideal for this option, which reduces the strain on your upper body and makes it much easier to do a situp. Position yourself so that your legs.If your goal is to do more sit-ups, you’ll need to improve your overall core strength and endurance.
Consider using a variety of different abdominal exercises in the early weeks of your training to build good core strength and stability, which will make the specific sit-up exercise easier in the following weeks.start with the basic sit-up workout. Do your sit-up workout every other day (such as Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). Warm up with a slow jog, cycling on a stationary bike, or jumping rope. Perform your basic workout with three sets of repetitions with a 30-second rest between each set.
Slowly bring your legs back to center. From center, lower your legs as far as they will go down to your right side. Hold for a second before returning to center. Use a bent leg if necessary to make the exercise more achievable, and work toward a straight leg as you progress.
Strengthening your abdominal muscles can help you to improve your situp technique and the amount of situps you are able to complete. You can strengthen these muscles through exercises that either focus on your stomach or include this area such as core stability work.As you get stronger, try a Pilates variation to this exercise: Instead of holding your hands behind your head or on your shoulders, keep your hands straight next to your torso and as you rise into the sit-up, glide the arms forward and then raise the arms at the same time as your torso and stretch them forwards.
Do 186 situps in 1 minute sets with a goal of 40–50 situps per minute. This should take you 4–5 sets done through your workout for four days straight. Days 9–10: You change the timed sets to.It’s easy to see the havoc that wreaks on the lower back, and it’s similar to what’s happening with most situps. While performing a slow and controlled situp can work fine to build one.
So the best way to do sit ups at home is to do crunches, and to do crunches, you will find that you have to basically do half sit ups. Confusing? Not to worry, all will be explained. And to do so, we will first take a look at how we would normally perform a sit up.
Perform five sets of weighted situps. Hold a dumbbell high on your chest, and select a weight that allows you to complete half as many situps as you did for your first set on your previous training day. Follow this with side bends for your obliques.
Hold a dumbbell in one hand while standing up with your back flat.These sit-up and crunch variations turn the classic move into something more interesting. Plus, you’ll find that many of these are a bit more difficult than the average sit-up, which means you’ll really carve that six pack.
Try this 10-minute workout featuring 10 sit-up variations, and your abs will feel the burn. 1.To perform a proper situp: Lie down on your back. Bend your legs and place feet firmly on the ground to stabilize your lower body.
Cross your hands to.Nice and slow. One, slow on the way down. Two, three, four.
All right. So that is the way to do a proper situp. Now guys, go out there, have a ball, knock some abs out and do your situps correctly.More. Report.

in the marines we wrap them under our chest, so would it still be the same thing?
Lol I saw his ad on yt then I found his channel a few weeks later��
If you read the army regs, your knees have to stay at 90 degrees the whole time damn near. If your legs are straight as you mentioned, they are not counted. It even says that if the knees exceed 90 degrees that they are not counted.
sit ups are accually great for your back…… if you listen to Sergeant. Real talk take it from a real man.
Didn’t know all I had to do was to just lock my feet I completed a set of 20 sit-ups just by locking my feet,before that I couldn’t even do 4 sit-ups in a set thanks man
Do a pushup program next that will increase your pushup score!
Dude does sit-up effortlessly. I can’t even get past a quarter up.
I do
700 1000 push ups
700 1000 sits ups
A day ��
All you need is david goggins
Thanks for your support!! Do you think Andy should be worried Tommy just called him out?
I had a baby 4 months ago and I really want my stomach flat again. I cant even do a sit up lol
Me: tries to follow the steps and do sit ups and falls right back into place like a potato �� I guess it’s about practice
I’m trying to lost even a bit of weight because I’m going to a girls house after quarantine
Do half the sit up…
Then do the other half…
Do it 4x…
Uhm…just do a whole situp. Lol
Wow, I was doing it the triangle way and could barely get 35 in 60 seconds even though my core is pretty strong. Now I’m doing almost 50. I appreciate it.
I just recently graduated boot camp & am heading back for ITB in a few days. I know that at ITB I might get the chance to try out for Recon but I’ve been thinking of trying out for Recon at a later time in my four year contract. My question is will I get the chance to try out later on? & if so, will I have to sign another 4 year contract? Hope you can get back to me, Thanks.
Doing sit ups like that kills my hip flexors and kills my run time��. Great video guys
Work when I’m not sore? It’ll take a little while and by then that work I did didn’t even matter
This time I’ll use Unflexal instructions to learn about workouts more:)
The push up technique should actually be based on which muscle is strongest, your chest or tri’s. If your chest is stronger go wider, if it’s weaker go closer. For the acft you are limited to a close stance, so if your chest is stronger turn your finger tips inward
I seem to have this problem where my hips lift off of the ground when I’m trying to do my sit ups. I know I have a weak core right now but is there something I’m doing wrong that would cause this? I feel like I could do so many more if I didn’t have this problem. What am I doing wrong? Lol
I’m getting lower back pain while doing push ups, what to do?
How do you even graduate with situps? I did situps exactly as explained and can only do 45 in a minute
You’re welcome! Make sure you check out my new channel! Coach Whittney K.
How come I can’t do sit ups for a test but when I’m at home I grab ramen and I can do sit ups EXPLAIN
Thanks very much Sgt! Been working your reps for push up and sit ups in preparation for gett my back in uniform
Hi nick, is there anyway I could email you and ask some questions
I’m trying to join the australian army so this will help me try and train for the fitness courses
Once I do this I feel the burns on my legs. Is it normal or what could be wrong
If the the test rule says elbows must reach the knees..then the cheat wont do if the legs are straight
Definitely helped me on my FA minor changes that make a huge difference
FYI, to anyone attending Ranger Assessment and Selection…be careful doing push ups in the manner that they show in this video. When I went through we were straight up told that ‘tricep pushups’ would not count.
Just got a 240 on my pt test at rsp, and I haven’t been to basic yet. Would have gotten higher but I got a 60% on sit ups. Gonna start doing this! Thanks!
Here is a lesson about the importance of “specificity of training”. I have been a power-builder for about 5 years now and I am squatting and deadlifting above the 400s and rack pulling 635lb, I can only do 25 push ups in a row and 12 sit ups before gassing out and cramping up. This is because I have not done sit ups and push ups since high school (a decade ago) and my body is not used to them at all. Since I finally decided to join the army a week ago, I’ve been improving on all fronts. My point is gym strength does not translate into endurance movements like push-ups, sit-ups and mile runs. Which is fucked up and so unfair.
I’ve always wanted to be in the army since I was in 3rd grade and now I’m a freshmen in high school but my mom will never let me join. Do you think there is anyway I can talk to her about it? Btw I love your videos they’re great
Sit ups kill my tailbone. Only thing I’m worried about for cross training…
I cam to this because I’m tired of being called idiot for not even able to do one sit up
Oh mah god this helped me a lot this improved me for pe in middle school than you ����
Now the real question. How to we keep our ass from getting rubbed raw after sit ups
Does this work? I need to do 37 in one minute to pass a power test.
https://www.thetrainingstationinc.com/workouts/Legendary%20Abs%20Revisited.pdf
you know your out of shape when your out of breath from doing jumping jacks
I guess every branch is different. Coast Guard sit-ups = fingers/hands cupped beside ears. No interlocking behind the head.
nice MRE reference: “a rock or something.” You thought you could sneak that in.
Is not really a cheat for the military there is a workout for strengthening your body and one to pass the test. For the first option, there is a ton of information available while the latter is more focus on energy and efficiency. The military does not give a damn how much a proper position push up or sit-ups you do as long you meet the required position. Is better to create a push-up and sit up routine for the test that focuses on numbers since that is how everyone is graded.
At drill sergeant school I wasn’t allowed to use the sit up cheat… Just letting you know lol
Hi, can you please make a new video about braces routine after 1 year… btw your videos are so cool!!! ��
My Low Abdominal is so pain when I laugh or moving after I did 30+ sit ups
You dont have to come all the way up for a sit up do you i thoughts it was your head a few inches of the ground until you feel the contration
Thank you so much. I knew tue pushup thing but I never could figure the best way to do situps
i can already do around 158/160. I just need to do more, I’m in NJROTC drill team and i am currently the best for sit-ups in my team. My goal is to be able to reach the 300 area.
Greetings, thanks for the tips!!, It worked really well for me, no more pain and strange postures, thank you again!
Situps are an inferior exercise never got good activation with it
I find it hard to do inhale/exhale while doing sits up.. Is it okay to continuously doing sit ups in 1 breath? I mean im doing 10 sit ups per reps.. I can atleast do 5 sit ups in 1 go
your guys vids on recon are awesome! nobody else is doing that on YouTube besides nick koumalatsos rn
my question is if you could go over maybe your take on deciding between RECON or MARSOC as a Marine lat mover in terms of mission profile/ what they’re doing these days etc
I commented on the “how to increase your push-ups” and now I will comment on this. I will do this for a month straight until I leave for Basic Training. I get around 50 sit-ups right now so I will update in a month.
Hello Howcast, if you are here, I have multiple questions, please answer the question numbers in the order and please reply them in my email at [email protected] gmail.com
1. Should I do the 2 types of half sit ups before or after the normal sit-ups?
2. For example, if right now, I can do 20 sit-ups without stopping, how many days would it take for me to do 80 sit-ups?
3. Can i do sit-ups on the concrete, if not, on what ground material I should do sit-ups on?
4. About holding feet, does it work on any holding feet, or it must be someone holding my feet for 400% increase sit-up to work?
5. Could I do the upper half first, then the lower half?
6. Will it work very well if I do it 10 sets?
If you need any information about me in order to answer my question, I am a boy, 14 years old, plays basketball, allergic to gluten and lactose, and if you need any more information, feel free to ask me.
Thank you so much about the video you made, I am interested in it. You are the best workout teacher I am ever seen. I cannot find one workout teacher better than you.
In air Force on situps do a crunch not a sit up and touch your elbows low on your thighs.
thx for u video,hope this video can help me hv good PTI in my NS
Hey I appreciate the video but could you make like a whole workout routine for a week I just did the push up exercise should I do this one right after..?could you make a day by day workout routine to get in shape for basic I leave soon
he hasnt got a clue in any of his training clips
firstly you never lock your hands behined your head for any kind of sit-up (its just not done)
secondly hes contradicting himself by saying to add weight to the excersise as the weigh would
only make the ab area stronger, not what your after what you actually want to do is add endurance and
be able to do a high number of reps
nothing fancy needed (any decent military guy will know this) do your maximum (say 10 reps +1 to fail)
next session (3 per week is ideal) 12 reps +1 to fail and so-on, addind 2 to 3 reps per session
you should easely be able to add atleast 6-8 reps over a week, thats 24 to 32 over a month
thats ontop of your starting reps (but 10 should be an easy start point)
and thats allowing 12 weeks before any start on training (if your talking military) so work out the maths
you should be able to exceed any of your goals with the above method
also if you really want to make this excersise harder (i mean if you can push-out a 100 quite easly)
send the little girl home, and do the excersise with your feet flat on the floor (not weighted at all)
and then do the excersise without your feet comeing off the floor
It’s true I started last week when I was 48 kgs and now I am 37kgs
Ty for the tip, im searching for tips because I might do this test to join the brazilian air force. I was doing it wrong, maybe that’s the reason i strugle so much to do sit ups. The sit up is a little bit different, we have to go all the way up and touch our ewbows in the distal third of upper leg(near the knee).
I’ve been doing 3 sets of 2 min planks and 2 sets of 3 to 5 min of non stop flutters plus hanging from a pullup bar and doing leg raises until failer for about 3 sets.
I do this every other day until basic. And the key is when you get used to a routine, increase the intensity.
I Wanna knw how to easily do it without dumbbells but I can’t ��
another really good ab workout for anybody interested is legendary abs
My chest is gassed and I’m sore as hell all over so time to take a pt test at 0400, yay
I can do 65 in 2 minutes and feel like I could bang out another 25 or so but don’t have the time. It takes me a little under 2 seconds to do 1 rep:(
Hey matt love your videos ��just wanted to know if you had like any breathing techniques when your doing these exercises if that makes any sense??
If I Was ever in Combat I would want you as my platoon leader
I use ankle weights to keep me down while I practice my sit-ups:)
I would say not to have your hands behind your head when doing sit-ups or a motion like this. Keep your arms across your chest with your hands on your shoulder but not squeezing your shoulder or grabbing your shirt
I did three years with the 10th SFG and can tell you that I never thought of or heard of any one cheating on the pt test it would just be so wrong
I wish i could get away with doing a sit up without my head touching the floor.:/
I use my Xbone, it shares many characteristics with a cinder block
Thank you! Waiting for age waiver and planning on shipping in january. Been training 4 months now. 36 but I’m hoping to get special forces. Any advise sir?
I have never seen a man push another man with his elbows in.
THANKS! I rlly needed dis cuz my fat ass can’t do ONE AHHHHZHGGGGGH
ANGERY
So if I’m doing 92 sit-ups in 2 minutes…does that mean I have to do 276 sit-ups a day?..
I use the sit up bench that holds you by your shins, sadly i can only use it for declines. So all of my sit up exercises are on a 5 degree decline and it kills me
Am I the only one that tends to slide back when doing sit-ups? I constantly feel like I have to readjust myself after like 30 sit-ups or so.
The 3rd example works, is one of the best to gain a six-pack
Need help guys, I started doing sit-ups and can do 25. Next few days my stomach hurt when doing sit-ups again. Like I CANT do anymore and feel pain. Is this normal?
That a good exercise I do that every morning with 50 counts
Who’s watching in quarantine and been eating too much but don’t wanna look like jabba the hut for summer ����
The people who looks for PT cheats you’re a floppy weakling.
Hi Vince! I answered the free survey and yes I am that “skinny guy who just cant grow.” I also watched the video but I dont have the capabilities and privileges to avail the programs offered, but, I will definitely follow those 3 simple steps you’ve mentioned and now, I am on my way to be “the healthiest, leanest, and best” version of myself. Thank you Vince.
Just wonderful, I have been researching “youtube sit ups” for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried Bondraw Firm Ferriferous (should be on google have a look )? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my partner got amazing success with it.
Ohhh yes hold the feet while doing the push up um the fuck did you just say guy
Also, if you don’t mind answering this, Matt. Do you recommend I do this before or after my two miles worth of 6120’s???
2:20 “When we hold the feet for the push-ups…”
If there is anyone holding my feet during push-ups, it will b e a donkey kick to the face.
Can you bring your phone with me while going to basic training?
I followed the parameters from this program for push-ups and sit ups. I increased my push-ups by 66% and sit-ups by 27%. Day 1 push-ups (PU) were 60/ Day 14 100 PU. Day 1 sit-ups 52 (SU)/ Day 14 66 SU.
I would recommend this program if you have a PT test within 2 weeks and you are coming off the couch to throw a hail marry and pass the test.
I will do this program again in the future. Highly recommend.
Question in apft if that person do over maxium pushups and sit ups is it wast of engry
Hey, im new to your videos, just wondering, are you currently active in the army?
Hey I have a question… I’m leaving for recruit training soon and heard at SOI you can volunteer to go to BRC.. I was wondering if you had any experience with that or knowledge of it. Thanks and keep posting the fire vids
Excuse me, how can I do that without using dumbbells to lock my feet..
I dont fucking know why the hell army does the hands behind head thats so bad for youre neck
Wow this was actually reallt helpful, thankyou because I have to do around 100 situps for mma (allowed to do crunches) but I wanted to up my situp game haha
I have a question. Whenever I do sit up, my stomach starts to get cramps. Why is that?
Holding your hands behind your head like that is NOT a good idea unless you want to do neck crunches, and no one wants to do that. Put your hands to your temples when you do the sit up and keep your neck straight unless you want arthritis in it when you get older.
You are giving my trade secret away on the situps…nobody has a measuring tool for 90 degrees….especially wearing some baggy pt pants ��.
Can someone tell me why I can do 55-60 sit-ups in only a minute but can only do like 20 pushups in a minute
