How to exert force when doing sit-ups?

When doing sit-ups, we should place our hands gently on the occipital bone behind the head, with our elbows naturally open to both sides, without pinching our ears. Then contract your abdominal muscles and push upward. This way your head will feel very relaxed. Be sure not to hold your breath when doing sit-ups. Sit-ups are a way many people choose to lose weight, but because they don't use the right method, it causes physical discomfort. Next, let's see how to use force when doing sit-ups.

The correct sit-up posture is like this

Lie flat on your back with your knees bent. Cross your hands and place them on your upper arms near your elbows. The sit-up process will take about 3 seconds until your elbows lightly touch your knees. Then lie down slowly at a speed of about 3 seconds.

And after you finish, please remember to stand up, lean back, and stretch your abdominal muscles that have just been tightened! Finally, you can do abdominal breathing for 10 to 30 minutes before lying down to sleep (all details will be introduced later). In this way, you can not only lose weight in your lower abdomen, but also relax your body's tense muscles and bones, which can help you have a good night's sleep!

How to do sit-ups correctly? If you are at home, you can lie on your back on the bed, lift your legs and place them on bedding or railings so that your knees and hips are approximately at right angles. This will prevent the thigh and groin muscles from being involved in the force; cross your hands in front of your chest. After starting the movement, contract your abdominal muscles and "roll up" your upper body like a paper roll until you feel your shoulder blades (upper back) leave the ground. Then slowly control your lowering until your shoulder blades lightly touch the bed surface, and immediately repeat the next movement. Generally do 2-3 sets each time, rest about 1 minute between sets, 15-20 times per set.

When doing sit-ups, it is important to note that the waist must not leave the bed at any time during the movement. Only the upper body is exercising, and the waist must not leave the bed, otherwise it is easy to cause some injuries to the body. However, for people with abdominal obesity, it is not enough to only do abdominal muscle strength exercises. Aerobic exercise and diet control must be strengthened to exercise a good body.
