What is the method to practice sit-ups?

Many white-collar beauties need to sit at their desks for long periods of time to work, and they rarely have time for activities. Over time, this often leads to the appearance of belly fat, which affects the beautiful curves of women. Therefore, some women who have excess fat on their stomachs will use sit-ups to reduce their belly fat. Of course, if you exercise with the correct posture, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort. So, what is the correct way to do sit-ups?

The correct way to do sit-ups

Lie on your back with your legs bent normally and your hands half-clenched and placed on both sides of your ears. Use your waist to push your upper body straight up, then slowly lower it back into place.

Sit-up breathing techniques

At the same time, you should do sit-ups with reasonable breathing. When doing sit-ups, you should exhale when bending forward and inhale when lying on your back. However, if you mechanically complete the entire inhalation process while lying on your back, it will be detrimental to the completion of the movement. Therefore, in order to improve the quality of the movement, you must also pay attention to the technique, that is, start inhaling in the process of lying on your back, hold your breath and tighten your abdomen at the moment your shoulders and back touch the pad, and gradually lift your upper body. When the upper body is lifted to the point where you feel a bloating in the abdomen, exhale quickly, pull your body forward and lower your head to complete the movement.

Sit-up timing

For those under 30, the best sit-up performance should be 45-60/minute; for those aged 30, it is best to do 35-40/minute; for those aged 40, it should be around 35/minute; for those aged 50, you should strive to reach 25-30/minute.

How to use the sit-up tool

The sit-up board is not only a bodybuilding equipment, but also can relieve the back fascia strain of those with lumbar muscle strain.

When exercising, you should also pay attention to gradual progress and slowly increase the amount of exercise to avoid physical injury due to excessive exercise.
