Thank u. Someone speaking the truth. Sick of listening to people saying sit-ups are bad for ya. Good work man

[denvergriffin]

Another gem.
I think most of us who were in the military and have seen thousands of people doing hundreds of thousands of situps - and no skies fell, no ambulances were called, no spine surgeries ever seemed to ensue - always roll our eyes at the marketing claims that "situps are dangerous."

These things should really be taught in schools, they are more important than math! Tried instantly and they are amazing, thanks!

Hey Matt, always struggled to do sit ups without anchoring my feet but since you explained how to do it correctly I did it instantly. Great information as always. Thank you

[rubabhuss]

This video gives one of the best tip to make sit-ups awesome again. I hated sit-ups because it always hurt my butt due to the pelvic tilt. I just followed your directions and my core already feels like it is being worked. Thank you Matt for making these awesome videos. I am very grateful.

Another great video! I used to do these years ago and realised how good they were when rolling down and up slowly.. Forgot about them over time. Cheers man.

Hi Matt! Great tip! I want to thank you because everytime i get stressed with my workout, seeing videos, pushing too much, chasing reps and numbers that makes me listen less to my body, i come at you and i see freshness and simple way of exercising, that anyway still works. Kind of going out from this fitness community where people get Crazy supplements and give unhealthy tips Just for the aesthetics sake and that are not sustainible. Like someone said, this way of working out should be practiced at school, cos It means health and control of our body lifelong.
Keep up with the good work

When you say "supremely safe", are you saying that the pelvic tilt to begin this movement is sufficient to stave off disc degeneration that would normally be a risk for sit ups? This is my concern having had L5S1 micro-discectomy surgery 15 years ago. Thanks in advance!

I've found that doing that posterior tilt is also good for your back when sitting for long periods, like at your desk if you have an office job. One good method is to use a small pad or pillow wedged into the corner of the seat so it forces your pelvis into such a tilt. Then relax and lean against the back of the seat. And then periodically push your lower back outward against the pad to make sure you are continuing to maintain that tilt.

Thanks for the thorough explanations, especially what happens when you *don't* tilt. Visuals like that really help me remember without overthinking the exercise when I'm doing them.

[dlacorte]

Tried this exercise and it is amazing! Feels super natural and works the abs as a whole. Thanks!

[glenchilada]

This is fantastic. I've been trying to get my daily routine down to the time equivalent of brushing my teeth or showering so I can knock it out and make it more habitual. Finding one complete challenging ab exercise has been my hangup until now. THANKS! Love your channel.

[anutagrigorovich]

amazing explanation!! I'm binge-watching all the techniques explanations now 😀

[DrBasit.A.R]

WOW I feel no back pain during this thank you for detailed really appreciated!!!
