Abdominal Myths VS Facts Part 2

Myth:

Old-fashioned sit-ups are a terrible choice of movement for developing your abs.

Fact:

Think sit-ups don’t work to build you abs? Tell that to the soldiers and boxers who rely on them as the bread and butter of their conditioning programs. True, a bad sit up is no good for you. Perform a sit up too fast, to violently or past the point of exhastion and you invite all the problems that have demonized the excercise, like pulling on your head and using your hip flexors to do all the work. Performed correctly, sit ups work for your abs through a longer range of motion and should be a part of anyone’s ab routine.
