Frog Sit Ups

A variation of sit-ups with a focus on the abdominals, performed with feet together and knees apart.

Instructions

• Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Bring your feet together and let your knees fall open to the sides resembling a frog position.
• Place your hands behind your head with elbows out to the sides.
• Engage your core and curl your shoulders off the ground, keeping your feet pressed together and knees apart.
• Pause at the top of the movement, then slowly lower back to the starting position.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Pulling on your neck with your hands instead of using your abs to lift.
• Not fully engaging the core, leading to ineffective movement.
• Letting the knees come together during the exercise.
