We all know how to do a sit up, right? But are we doing it correctly?

1. Inhale to prepare for the movement. Focus on maintaining a stable and engaged core throughout the exercise.

2. Exhale as you slowly articulate your spine and roll down to the mat, one vertebra at a time. Keep your chin tucked slightly toward your chest. Slower= more effective

3. Continue engaging your core and lower body to control the descent. Aim to articulate through the entire spine rather than collapsing.

4. Once you are lying on the mat, pause for a moment while maintaining engagement in your core muscles.

5. Inhale to prepare for the ascent. Visualize peeling your spine off the mat as you start rolling up, one vertebra at a time.

6. As you roll up, reach your arms forward, keeping them parallel to the floor. Keep your gaze focused on your abdominals.
